4 Cleaning and
maintenance
4.1 Cleaning the surfaces
To keep the outside surfaces of the kettle in
good condition, clean them regularly after
each use after allowing them to cool down.
Pour the product onto a damp cloth and
clean the surface, wipe thoroughly once
more and then dry with a soft cloth or a
microfibre cloth.
Improper use: Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use steam jets to clean the
appliance.
• Do not use cleaning products containing
chlorine, ammonia or bleach.
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents (e.g. powder products, stain
removers and metallic scourers).
• Do not use rough or abrasive materials or
sharp metal scrapers.
4.2 Descaling
Improper use: Risk of damaging the
appliance
Do not use descaling products
for cleaning bathrooms or
kitchens or products that contain
perfumes.
Regularly removing scale deposits from
inside the kettle will prolong your kettle’s
life, ensuring maximum performance and
energy savings.
The kettle can be descaled using specific
descaling products. Follow the descaler
instructions.
Alternatively, you can use common
household vinegar.
Proceed as follows:
1) Fill the kettle with water (0.5-0.6 litres)
and boil it.
2) Add white vinegar (0.1 to 0.2 l
depending on the amount of scale).
3) Leave it to act overnight.
4) Empty the kettle.
5) Fill the kettle with water and boil it.
Empty the kettle, disposing of the water
safely. Repeat this operation at least
twice.
Tips and suggestions for the user
Frequent use or very hard water
increases the risk of scale.
Scale build-up can cause the
kettle to switch off during use
before the water has boiled.
Boiling times could also increase.
If the kettle is used daily, descale
it more frequently. If the water is
hard, clean more frequently or use
purified water.
