is used. During standard use of the kettle (3 to 5 times per day), we recommend to remove water
scale deposits:
– once per month in areas with hard and very hard water;
– once every two to three months in areas with soft and medium hard water.
• To remove water scale deposits it is possible to use:
– 8% white vinegar, generally available in stores. Put ½ l of vinegar into the kettle and allow it
to settle for 2 hours without boiling. Then empty the kettle and before further use boil clean
water in it four to fi ve times.
– citric acid. Boil ½ l of water in the kettle, into the boiled water add 30 g of citric acid and allow
it to settle for about 30 minutes. Then empty the kettle and before further use boil clean water
in it four to fi ve times.
• To clean the external parts of the electric kettle use a dry cloth or a cloth dipped in a weak solution
of neutral kitchen detergent. After applying the kitchen detergent, wipe the surface with a lightly
damp cloth and then wipe dry.
• To clean the base use only a dry cloth.
• Never use cleaning agents causing abrasion, petrol, solvents, etc. to clean the kettle and the base.
