Cleaning Your Kettle
Anti-Scale Mesh Filter
Scale is caused by lime and calcium in hard water. The mesh filter will prevent
these suspended particles from being poured out of the kettle. To ensure opti-
mum performance of the filter it should be periodically cleaned. See “Cleaning
Your Kettle.”
If Your Kettle Boils Dry
The heating element is protected by
two automatic safety devices. If your
kettle is accidentally switched on
without being filled with water, or is
allowed to boil dry, the kettle will
automatically switch off.
You should:
• Unplug kettle and wait about 20
minutes for the element to cool.
• Refill kettle, then use as normal and
check that kettle functions correctly.
