Safety

• Place the kettle in a secure place and out of children’s reach
to reduce the risk of scalding from boiling water.

• The kettle should only be used as described in the manual.

• Never fill the kettle with any other liquid than water.

• Always unplug the product from the wall socket before cleaning it or when
it is not to be used for a long time.

• Make sure that the lead does not come into contact with hot surfaces,
e.g. a warm hob.

• The exterior of the kettle should not be exposed to water or other liquids.
If the exterior of the kettle is wet, pull out the plug and dry the kettle using a cloth.

• Do not touch the kettle or the lead if your hands are wet.

• Check that the mains current is 220–240 V and that the kettle is connected to an
earthed socket.

a handle and do not let it get caught in a door. Do not pull the lead around

Careandmaintenance

• Always unplug the appliance from the wall socket before cleaning.

• Never submerge the kettle in water.

• Clean by wiping with a soft cloth moistened with water and possibly a little
washing-up liquid.

• Avoid using solvents and abrasive cleaning agents. Dry carefully after cleaning.

• Clean the filter located in the spout of the kettle regularly. The filter can be lifted up
when the lid is open. Rinse the filter in warm running water and let it dry. Slide the filter
back into the grooves in the spout.

Descaling

Because of the natural occurrence of calcium in water, limescale deposits may form in the
kettle after some use. Limescale deposits might lengthen the time needed for water to boil.

For descaling, use a mixture of water and white vinegar (acetic acid) or a special descaling
agent that can be purchased at most supermarkets.

1. Mix 1 dl of white vinegar (not regular vinegar) with 3 dl cold water or follow the
directions included with the descaling agent.

2. Pour the mixture into the kettle and turn it on. Let the mixture boil twice.
Thereafter, pour the mixture away.

3. In order to remove the last remnants of limescale and descaling agent, the kettle should
be filled to the max mark with fresh cold water. Turn the kettle on and let it boil.

4. Pour out the water and repeat this process 3 times. The kettle is now ready to use
again.

The kettle should be descaled after 2-3 months daily use or whenever it has
visible limescale deposits.
