lter instructions
A mesh removable lime scale lter has been integrated into the kettle to reduce the amount
of scale residues entering your beverages or food. The lter is removable for cleaning (See
gure 8). To reduce scale build-up, empty out any residual water after boiling.
How often the lter should be cleaned will vary according to where you live and how often
you use your kettle. The lter should be cleaned whenever there are noticeable deposits left
on the lter and especially if the rate of pouring decreases.
