Cleaning the filter

Scale is not harmful to your health but it may give your drink a powdery
taste. The anti-scale filter prevents scale particles from ending up in your
drink.

Take the filter out of the kettle (Fig. 19).
1
Gently clean the filter with a soft nylon brush.
2
Slide the filter back into the kettle.

Note: HD9386/HD9388 only: The filter at the bottom of the kettle cannot be
removed. You can clean this filter by descaling the kettle, see sections 'Descaling
the kettle' below.
Descaling the kettle (hD9380/hD9384)
Regular descaling prolongs the lifetime of the kettle.
In case of normal use (up to 5 times a day), the following descaling
frequency is recommended:
- Once every 6 months for areas with low water hardness.
- Once every 3 months for areas with average water hardness.
- Once every month for areas with high water hardness.
