NOTE: Through regular use over time, scale build-up can affect the perfor-
mance and the life of the Tea Maker. Lime and phosphate are common
forms of scale that can damage your Tea Maker. Lime scale, a harmless min-
eral, comes in the appearance of white-coloured or rusty looking build up on
the inner walls and inner base of the Glass Jug. Phosphate scale can't be seen,
however, it can cause the water to appear cloudy when heated. To prevent
scale from damaging your Tea Maker, ensure to de-scale the Glass Jug regu-
larly. Use SOLIPOL de-scaling agent and follow the instructions that come with
the agent.
