(level marked as "min" on the scale).
Do not leave the kettle unattended, and when not completely
cooled down.

CLEANING:
Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance from the wall outlet
and allow it to cool down completely.
1. Do not immerse the kettle, cord and power base in water and
protect against contact with moisture.
2. Wipe the outside of the kettle with a damp cloth or mild
cleaning agent; never use any poisonous cleaning agents.
3. Remember to clean the filter regularly. To facilitate cleaning,
remove the filter by pressing the filter tab inside the kettle,
and reinstall it after cleaning.
NOTE: To prevent matting, do not use any abrasive cleaners, harsh
chemicals, steel or wood to clean the outside of the kettle.
4. When the kettle is not in use and in storage, you can wind the
power cord under the kettle base.
DESCALE YOUR APPLIANCE
If the appliance switches off before the water boils, it means des-
caling is required. Descale your kettle periodically, as minerals dis-
solved in the tap water can form limescale on the bottom of the
kettle, which reduces the water heating efficiency. You can use a
commercially available descaler and follow the instructions on its
packaging. You can also use white vinegar and follow the instruc-
tions below.
1. Fill the kettle with 3 cups of white vinegar and then add water
until it completely covers the limescale. Leave the solution in
the kettle overnight.
2. Then pour the mixture out of the kettle, fill the kettle with
clean water to the maximum level, bring it to a boil and then
pour out the water. Repeat several times until the smell of
vinegar disappears. Any limescale residue inside the spout
can be removed by wiping with a damp cloth.
