Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning will extend the life of your kettle and ensure optimal performance.
- Before Cleaning: Always unplug the kettle from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may damage the finish.
- Interior Cleaning (Descaling): Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas.
- Fill the kettle with a mixture of one part white vinegar and two parts water.
- Boil the mixture and let it stand for at least 30 minutes, or longer for heavy buildup.
- Empty the kettle and rinse thoroughly with fresh water several times.
- For stubborn deposits, gently scrub the interior with a non-abrasive brush or sponge.
- Alternatively, use a commercial descaling solution designed for kettles, following the product instructions.
- Filter Cleaning: The filter inside the spout can be removed for cleaning. Rinse it under running water and gently brush away any deposits. Reinsert the filter securely after cleaning.
- Storage: When not in use, store the kettle and its base in a dry place.
