The kettle will automatically switch off once the water is boiled (the ON/OFF switch will click upwards and the lights will go out). · To turn the kettle off before the water boils, you may move the ON/OFF switch up to the OFF position, or simply lift the kettle from its base - it will switch off and the switch will return to the OFF position automatically.

[. . . ] The frequency with which you will need to clean any scale deposits from your filter will depend on the hardness of water in your area and how often you use the kettle. You should remove and clean the water filter when you notice any deposits being left on the filter or if the pouring efficiency is impaired. Removing the scale filter · Allow the kettle to cool down fully. · Make sure that your hands are clean and free from soap, cream or anything which might taint the water. 3). 5 Kettle Descaling the kettle · · It is vital to clean and descale regularly in order to maintain good working order Use a proprietary descaling product e. g. We recommend using citric acid crystals as follows: Pour into kettle about 50 gr. of citric acid cristal and then fill with water up to the max level indicated and then boil. If the filter requires descaling, remove the filter and place into the citric acid solution. Ensure that the electrical connections are completely dry before using the kettle. Citric acid crystals are available from most pharmacies. · · · Safety Warnings Please read these instructions before operating and retain for future reference. · Ensure that your mains supply voltage is the same as that marked on the underside of your kettle. · To protect against electrical hazards do not immerse the mains lead, plug power base or kettle in water or any other liquid. · Take care when pouring - do not over-tilt the kettle as water may enter into the switch mechanism. · Water can remain hot for a long time after boiling and can present a scald hazard. Keep the kettle and the mains lead away from the edge of the work surface and out of the reach of children. · Do not allow the mains lead to hang over the edge of the table or work surface, or anywhere it may be accidentally caught or tripped over. · Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. · Remove the plug from the mains socket when not in use and before cleaning. · Keep the kettle, the power base, and the mains lead away from hotplates, hobs or burners. 6 Kettle Do not use the kettle for any purpose other than heating water. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock or personal injury. · Position the kettle properly on the power base before switching on. [. . . ] Note: Such a plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly disposed of, (having removed the fuse) and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent danger. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the fuse recess or elsewhere on the plug. N. B. We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets that can be switched off when the machine is not in use.
