9. Lift kettle from base and pour water out slowly. IMPORTANT Open lid (A) at
a 90º angle, when pouring all of the water at once into another container.
This way hot steam will be diverted away from the hand holding the handle (D).
10. Replace kettle.
11. If you want to bring the remaining water to a boil again, repeat step 7.
HELPFUL HINTS:
• Never try to boil water with the lid open.
• Do not leave water standing in the kettle. Discard unused water.
• If the kettle is "ON" without water, the kettle will automatically turn off (the
blue indicator light will turn off, but the switch will NOT jump back). Slide the
switch (B) downward to the complete OFF position.
• If you remove the kettle during heating – before Auto Shut-Off – the blue
indicator light will turn off but the switch will stay in the ON position. If you
place the kettle back on the power base, the light will turn on again, indicating
that heating continues. You can always slide the switch downward to the
complete OFF position.
CLEANING
• Always unplug cord of power base before cleaning.
• Make sure kettle is cold.
• Clean the exterior surface with a clean, damp, soft cloth.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring agents.
• Rinse out kettle and wipe dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Attention:
• Over time the stainless steel cover of the heating element inside the bottom
of the kettle may change color slightly. This is caused by the intense heat of
the heating element.
• If your water has a high iron content brownish stains may appear on the
stainless steel element (this is also known as "boiler scale"). These stains can
be wiped away with a cloth and a mild abrasive. Rinse kettle thoroughly with
fresh water.
DECALCIFICATION
Hard water can leave calcium spots inside the kettle that can slow down boiling
time. Use a commercial descaling agent, like Capresso Cleaning Solution and
follow the instructions that come with the agent.
NOTE: Make sure kettle is cold.
Use of Capresso Cleaning Solution
Dissolve 1 oz (28 g) of Capresso Cleaning Solution with 32 oz (1 L) of water and
pour mixture into kettle. Allow mixture to sit inside the kettle for 20-30 minutes.
Pour water and Cleaning Solution out and rinse the kettle 2-3 times with fresh,
clean water. DO NOT heat the kettle while descaling with Capresso Cleaning
Solution.
Use of Vinegar
You can also use white vinegar to descale the inside. Fill the kettle with 2 cups
of water (16 oz) and add 6 tablespoons of white vinegar. Bring to a boil. Discard
the solution and repeat if necessary. Rinse the kettle once or twice with fresh
cold water.
