TO CLEAN THE FILTER
The lter is removable. (fig. 9)
The removable lter consists of a mesh to retain the particles of scale and prevent

on/off button (located at the bottom of the handle) upwards. (fig. 8)
Make sure that the on/off button is in the off position after boiling and that the kettle has
switched off before removing it from its base.
Do not leave water in the kettle after use as this quickens the formation of scale.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
USE
water, the lter can clog very quickly (10 to 15 uses). It is important to clean it regularly.
If it is wet, put it under a running tap, if dry, then brush it gently. Sometimes the scale will
not detach itself; if so, it will then need descaling.
Descale your kettle regularly, preferably once per month or more often if you live in a
hard water area.
TO DESCALE YOUR KETTLE
Either use commercial white vinegar:
–Fill the kettle with 0.5 L of vinegar
–Leave it in the kettle for 1 hour without heating.
Or citric acid:
–Boil 0.5 L of water
–Add 25 g of citric acid and leave it in the kettle for 15 min.
Using a descaler specically for kettles: follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Empty your kettle and rinse 5 or 6 times. Repeat if necessary.
TO DESCALE YOUR FILTER
Soak the lter in white vinegar or diluted citric acid.
Never use a de-scaling method other than what is recommended above.
DESCALING
THERE IS NO EVIDENT DAMAGE TO YOUR KETTLE:
The kettle does not work or stops before coming to a boil:
–Check that your kettle is properly connected.
–The kettle has been switched on without water or an accumulation of scale has caused
the overheat cut-out to operate: allow the kettle to cool and ll it with water. Descale
rst if scale has accumulated. Switch it on: the kettle should start working again after
about 15 minutes.
The water tastes of plastic:
–Generally, this happens when the kettle is new, discard the water from the rst few
boilings. If the problem persists, ll the kettle to maximum and add two teaspoons of
baking soda. Bring to a boil and discard the water. Rinse out the kettle.
