18. When you lift the kettle, you may see moisture on the stand. Don't worry
— it's the steam used to switch off automatically, which then condenses and
escapes via vents under the kettle.
19. You may see some discolouration on the floor of the kettle. Again, don't
worry — it's due to the bonding of the element to the kettle floor.
using with insufficient water
20. This will shorten the life of the element. A boil-dry cut-out will switch
the kettle off.
21. To prevent the kettle cycling on and off, remove the kettle from the
stand and let it cool before replacing it on the stand.
22. Don't fill it the kettle till it's cold, or it may spit.
Care and maintenance
Unplug the stand from the wall socket, and let the kettle cool down fully
before cleaning. Wipe the kettle, inside and out, with a damp cloth. You may
use a little household detergent, but if you do, rinse well to avoid tainting the
water. Keep all connectors and sockets dry. Don't put the kettle or stand in any
liquid. Don't use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
descale regularly
Limescale may be white, coloured, even rusty-looking.
It may cause overheating, and reduce the working life of the element. It may
also make the safety cutout operate prematurely, switching the kettle off
before the water boils.
As the element is mounted beneath the kettle, scale can build up only on the
walls and floor of the kettle, where it can be seen and dealt with.
If you see scale forming, wipe it off.
Descale regularly, (at least monthly) to keep your kettle in good working order.
Use a descaler suitable for use in plastic products (most products have plastic
parts). Follow the instructions on the descaler, rinse several times, then fill,
boil and discard the water, to ensure no residues are left.
note Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject
to a repair charge.
