„ „
Press the control (d) to open the lid.

Swivel the filter and pull it upward to remove it from the pouring spout (6).
„ „
To replace the limescale filter, slide it into the pouring spout and lock it by pushing
downwards.
Notes:
The filter is only suitable for this type of kettle.
The absence of a filter will not stop the kettle from working.
„ „
Unplug the kettle, remove it from its base and allow it to cool down.
„ „
To clean the external surfaces, use a damp cloth with a little washing-up liquid. Rinse
and dry carefully.
„ „
Never immerse the kettle or the base in water.
Model with limescale filter
„ „
Clean the limescale filter at regular intervals.
„ „
Rinse it in fresh running water, using a soft non-metallic brush.
Descaling
To allow water to reach boiling point, it is essential that you descale your kettle at regular
intervals. To do this, we advise you to use wine vinegar:
„ „
Pour 1/2 litre water into the kettle.
„ „
Add 1/2 glass of 8° wine vinegar.
„ „
Bring to the boil and leave to work for 15 minutes.
„ „
Then rinse your kettle several times in cold water.
„ „
Boil fresh water before using the kettle again.
Model with limescale filter
This same mixture (water + vinegar) can also be used to descale the limescale filter.
„ „
Pour a little of the hot mixture into a container.
„ „
Soak the filter in the mixture for several minutes, until the particles of tartar trapped
in the pores of the filter have dissolved.
„ „
Then rinse the filter thoroughly in fresh water.
Note:
Our guarantee does not cover kettles which do not work or work poorly because
they have not been descaled.
