Cleaning
WarnInG:
• Always turn the device off before cleaning it and remove
the mains plug. Wait until the device has cooled down.
• Never immerse the device or the base in water or other
liquids.

• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• Rinse the water container out with clean water. Then dry it
off with a cloth.
• Clean the housing after use with a slightly damp cloth.
• A permanent filter is located at the spout opening. To clean
the filter, pull it out when the lid is open. Rinse it out under
running water. If necessary, clean it with a nylon brush.
Reinsert the filter. To do so, use the guides on the inside of
the kettle.
Decalcification
• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends on
the hardness of the water and on how often the appliance
is used.
• If the machine switches off before the water boils, it prob-
ably needs to be decalcified.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use
the quantities stated in the instructions.
nOTE:
After descaling the device boil fresh water in it several times
(approximately 3-4 times) in order to remove any residues.
Do not consume this water.

• The machine switches off before the water has boiled.
Possible Cause:
The heating element is covered in scale or the electrical
circuit of the power socket is overloaded.
