Improper use (risk of damage to surfaces): · Do not use steam jets to clean the
appliance. · Do not use cleaning products containing
chlorine, ammonia or bleach. · Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents (e.g. powder products, stain removers and metallic scourers). · Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers.

1) Open the lid (Fig. E)and extract the filter (Fig. B).
2) Wash the filter under running water with the aid of a soft brush.
3) Put the filter back in position behind the spout (Fig. C).

Regularly removing scale deposits from inside the kettle will prolong your kettle's life, ensuring maximum performance and energy savings.
The kettle can be descaled using specific descaling products. Follow the descaler instructions.
Alternatively, you can use common household vinegar. Proceed as follows:
1) Fill the kettle with water (1 litre) and boil it.
2) Add white vinegar (0.1 to 0.5 litres depending on the amount of scale).
3) Leave it to act overnight. 4) Empty the kettle. 5) Fill the kettle with water and boil it.
Empty the kettle, disposing of the water safely. Repeat this operation at least twice.
Tips and suggestions for the user
Frequent use or very hard water increases the risk of scale.
Scale build-up can cause the kettle to switch off during use before the water has boiled.
Boiling times could also increase.
If the kettle is used daily, descale it more frequently. If the water is hard, clean more frequently or use purified water.

4.3 Descaling
Improper use: Risk of damaging the appliance

Do not use descaling products for cleaning bathrooms or kitchens or products that contain perfumes.
