DECALCIFICATION

Decalcification refers to removing mineral
deposits, which may form in the interior of
the kettle and may result in discoloration.
To get the best performance from your
kettle, decalcify your unit from time to time.
Frequency will depend on the hardness of
your tap water and how often you use your
kettle.
We suggest using a kettle descaler in order
to dissolve these deposits or scale. Follow
the directions on the descaler package.
If a commercial descaler is not available,
fill the kettle with enough white vinegar
to cover the bottom by about ½ inch
(1.25 cm). Heat the vinegar to a boil. Repeat
this with cooled vinegar until all deposits
are removed. When the descaling process
is complete, empty the kettle and rinse out
several times with clean water.
