Care and cleaning

Always switch off at the power outlet, and then unplug the appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.

Removable filter

The Ikon Cordfree kettle features a removable mesh filter to filter out scale deposits for cleaner water. To remove the scale deposits remove the filter by opening the lid and lifting up and out of the kettle. The filter can be cleaned by running under hot water and rubbing with a cleaning cloth or brush.

To replace filter, simply slide the filter down into the slot behind the spout of the kettle.

Removal of mineral deposits

Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the kettle interior and water gauge to discolour over time. This may be removed by using a proprietary kettle descaler which is available from most leading supermarkets, department stores and hardware stores.

Alternatively:

1.Fill the kettle until 2/3 full with 1 part vinegar and 2 parts water. Boil and allow to

stand overnight.

2.Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the kettle 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 may be wiped over with a damp cloth and polished with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use chemical, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of the kettle.
