2.After the period of soaking, empty the kettle. Due to the fact that a small amount of solution will be left in the kettle, it is necessary to rinse the kettle out with clean water 2 or 3 times. Your kettle is now ready for use.
3.The outside of the kettle can be
wiped clean with a soft damp cloth. NOTE: Never use any chemical, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean any part of the kettle.
