3. Clean the scale filter (10) with a soft brush under the tap and rinse thoroughly.
4. Reattach the scale filter (10) to the kettle (2) after cleaning.
Descaling
Descale your kettle regularly to maintain efficient performance. Limescale and hard
mineral deposits may build up inside the kettle over time, which slow down the
boiling process.
To descale with a commercially available descaling solution:
• Choose a descaler suitable for plastic kettles and follow the package
instructions.
• Make sure you rinse the kettle fully after descaling to flush out any chemical
residues.
To descale with white vinegar:
1. Press the lid open button (5) to open the lid (4).
2. Place a finger into the spout (1), press on the protruding nodules on the scale
filter (10) to pop it out of the slot and remove.
3. Fill the kettle with 1 L of water and boil.
4. Add 0.7 L of white vinegar so the liquid reaches the MAX marking. Do not boil.
5. Immerse the scale filter (10) inside the vinegar solution.
6. Leave the vinegar solution in the kettle overnight.
7. Discard the vinegar solution the next morning and rinse the inside of the kettle
thoroughly.
8. Clean the scale filter (10) with a soft brush under the tap and rinse thoroughly.
9. Reattach the scale filter (10) to the kettle (2) after cleaning.
10. Fill the kettle with fresh water up to the MAX marking. Bring to a boil and then
discard the water. Repeat a few times.
Descale your kettle once every 3 months if you live in an area with soft water,
or once every month if you live in an area with hard water. Regular descaling
ensures proper function, product longevity and saves energy.
Tips to reduce scale buildup

• Use filtered water instead of tap water or mineral water.
