Descaling
Depending on the water quality in your
area, lime deposits may build up on the
heating element. It is advisable to remove
any such deposits at regular intervals.
Any warranty claim will be null and void
if the kettle malfunctions because of
insufficient descaling.
When descaling, a mixture of 0.3 litres
of water to two tablespoons of vinegar is
suitable.
∙ Pour the descaler in.
∙ Switch the appliance on and let the
solution reach boiling point.
∙ Leave it to take effect for a short period.
∙ To clean the container after descaling,
rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
∙ Do not pour descalers down enamel-
coated sinks.
Sieve
If necessary, the sieve can be removed
from the spout for cleaning. Re-insert the
sieve afterwards.
Cleaning and care
∙ Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it
is disconnected from the power supply
and has cooled down completely.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
immerse the kettle in liquid and do not
clean it under running water.
∙ For cleaning, a slightly damp, lint-free
cloth may be used.
∙ Do not use abrasives, harsh cleaning
solutions or stiff brushes for cleaning.
∙ The cups and spoons may be cleaned
in warm soapy water. Caution: These
items are not dishwasher-safe.
Storage
To save space, the cups can be put inside
each other and then stored in the water
container, together with the spoons.
However, ensure first that the appliance
has completely cooled down.
