CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: Always disconnect the kettle from electrical outlet before cleaning.

Before cleaning, be sure the kettle is cold.

Clean the exterior surface of the kettle with a clean, damp cloth to preserve its original highly polished finish. Dry and polish with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring agents of any kind on the interior or exterior of the kettle.

Do not immerse the kettle or power base in water or other liquid, and be sure that the electric kettle socket is kept dry.

DECALCIFICATION

Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits which may form in the interior metal parts of the kettle.

To get the best performance from your Cuisinart® kettle, decalcify your unit from time to time. Frequency depends on the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the kettle.

We suggest use of a kettle descaler in order to dissolve these chalky deposits or scale. Follow the directions on the descaler package. If a commercial descaler is not available, fill the kettle with enough white vinegar to cover the bottom by about 1/2". Bring the vinegar to a boil. You may need to repeat this several times with cooled vinegar to remove the calcium buildup completely. When the descaling process is complete, empty the kettle and rinse out several times with clean water.
