CARE AND CLEANING
CARE AND CLEANING
Always switch off at the power outlet and unplug the
appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.
Removable fi lter
The Variable Temperature Kettle KE 8010 features
a removable mesh filter to remove scale deposits
for cleaner water.
To clean the scale deposits from the filter, re-
move the filter by opening the lid and sliding the
filter up and out of the kettle.
The filter can be cleaned by placing under run-
ning hot water and rubbing with a cleaning
cloth or brush. To replace the filter, simply slide
the filter down into the slot behind the spout of
the kettle and push back into position.
Removal of mineral deposits
Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the ket-
tle interior and water window to discolour over
time. Mineral deposits may be removed by using
a proprietary kettle descaler available from most
leading supermarkets, department stores and
hardware stores.
Alternatively:
1. Fill the kettle until two-thirds full with 1 part
vinegar and 2 parts water. Boil and allow to stand
overnight.
2. Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the ket-
tle with clean water, bring to boil and discard the
water. Repeat and the kettle will be ready for use.
To clean the exterior
The outside of the kettle should be wiped with
a damp cloth then polished with a soft, dry
cloth.
NOTE:
The filter could become damaged with
time, so please check regularly and re-
place if found damaged.
NOTE:
Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or
abrasive cleaners to clean the inside or
outside of the kettle.

ANCE, DO NOT USE ALKALINE CLEANING
AGENTS WHEN CLEANING.
