REMOVAL OF MINERAL
DEPOSITS
Your kettle should be periodically descaled, as the
mineral deposits in tap water may form scale on
the bottom of the kettle and cause a less efficient
operation. You can use any commercially available
descaler. Follow the instructions on the package of the
descaler. Alternatively, you may follow the instructions
below and use white vinegar.
1. Fill the appliance 3/4 full, boil, then unplug the
appliance (remove the cordless kettle from the
base unit) and stand it in an empty sink or bowl.
Gradually add 50ml of white vinegar to the water.
Leave the solution in the kettle overnight.
2. Discard the mixture in the kettle, fill the kettle
with clean water, boil and then discard the water.
Repeat several times until the smell of vinegar
has been flushed away. Any stains remaining
inside the spout can be removed by rubbing it
with a damp cloth.
DISPOSAL OF OLD
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Wa-
ste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE), requires that old household electri-
cal appliances must not be disposed of in
the normal unsorted municipal waste stre-
am.
Old appliances must be collected separately
in order to optimise the recovery and
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the
impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product
reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose
of the appliance it must be separately collected. Con-
sumers should contact their local authority or retailer
for information concerning the correct disposal of their
old appliance.
