DESCALING
In hard water areas furring or lime deposits forming on the concealed element may result in increased boiling
time and affect the kettle operation. If this deposit is not removed it can cause damage to the kettle. The scale
can be removed by using an appropriate descaler available from Tesco and hardware stores or chemists.
Follow the instructions with the descaler. After descaling boil the kettle several times with fresh water before
use. Do not descale too often as this may shorten the life of the element. Thoroughly clean the exterior of your
kettle to remove any traces of descaler; failure to do so may damage it.
Do not immerse any part of this appliance in water or other liquid when cleaning the appliance and never use
any abrasive cleaners or scourers.
STORAGE
Excess cord can be stowed by feeding the cord into the storage cavity in the base of the unit. When not in use
the kettle should be stored on its base out of the reach of children and pets.

SAFETY AND OTHER FEATURES
Removable Scale Filter
The filter traps scale. If you fill the kettle via the spout, the effectiveness of this filter will be reduced.
A: To remove the filter: Allow the kettle to cool and open the lid. Press down lightly and lift the filter out.
B: To replace the filter: Locate the filter in the slot at the base of the spout. Ease the filter into place
making sure the tab at the front of the filter fits snugly into the recess in the kettle spout . Do not use force.
Boil Switch with Auto Cut-Out
When boiling water, do NOT hold the switch down or steam will be ejected from the lid and you may
damage the automatic switch off mechanism. Always ensure that the ON/OFF switch is clear of
obstructions, readily operable and is not prevented from switching off.
Boil Dry Protection
Your kettle is fitted with a safety device which switches it off if the appliance is operated with insufficient
water. If this occurs, the kettle should be switched off at the mains and allowed to cool thoroughly before
refilling with cold water. The safety device will then reset.
Overheating Shut -Off
In the event of gross overheating, your kettle will automatically shut down to prevent further damage.
Should this occur, take it to a qualified service person for examination and repair.
CLEANING
Switch off at the mains and remove the plug from the socket outlet before cleaning. The appliance can be
wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Remove the filter. Brush the filter in running water to remove any adhered scale. After cleaning replace the
filter.
