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 insuffi cient
descaling.
When descaling, a mixture of 0.3 litres
of water to two tablespoons of vinegar is
suitable.

∙ Switch the appliance on and let the
solution reach boiling point.
