Maintenance

Cleaning the Kettle

  • Always unplug the kettle from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
  • Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
  • The mesh filter can be easily removed for cleaning. Rinse it under running water.
  • Do not immerse the kettle or power base in water or any other liquid.

Descaling

Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) may build up inside the kettle, especially in hard water areas. This can affect performance and taste. Descaling is recommended periodically:

  • Fill the kettle with 1 part white vinegar and 2 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.
  • Alternatively, use a commercial descaling solution following the product's instructions.
