Scale filter (2)
Scale, or calcium, is a natural substance that forms when
hard water is boiled. The filter (2) serves to retain the calcium
in the water kettle.
Cleaning and removal of the filter
It is important to clean the filter (2) regularly. The filter (2)
clips into the body and can be removed by pulling it upwards
from the body. It can be cleaned by gentle brushing with a
soft brush under running water.
Kettle clean and decale
Remove scale using either a proprietary de-scaling product
suitable for plastic kettles (following the instructions
carefully), or citric acid.
We recommend using citric acid as follows:
Boil 1 l/34 oz litre of water, then unplug the kettle and stand
it in an empty sink or bowl. Add 50 gm of citric acid crystals
gradually, then leave the kettle to stand.
