7. Descaling and cleaning
We recommend to descale the kettle at regular intervals depending upon the in-
tensity of use. Before cleaning, pull out the power plug and wait until the appliance
cools down completely. Please use only commercially available descaling agents
based on citric acid to descale the water container.
For the appropriate dosage, please refer to the specifications on the package or
insert of the descaling agent. The heating plate should not be specifically cleaned.
Do not use any hard objects on the heating plate.
Use only a damp cloth for cleaning the kettle externally. Do not use any abrasive
items like wire brush or steel sponge for cleaning. Never use any cleaning agents
which may corrode the surface or present a health risk if consumed! Never im-
merse the appliance, the power cable or the plug in water or in any other liquid to
prevent risk of electric shock.
CAUTION!
