descaling

●Regular descaling of the flat element will improve the performance of your kettle. If the kettle is not descaled regularly the build up of limescale may result in the following:

●problems may be experienced with the kettle switching on and off during use or switching off before boiling.

●the kettle may take longer to boil.

●the flat element may be damaged.

Please note: not descaling your kettle may invalidate your guarantee.

●When limescale starts to build up on the heating element, buy a suitable descaler and descale your kettle. After descaling, boil with fresh water several times and discard. Clean any descaler off the kettle - it can damage the parts.

●Some regions of the country have chalky water. This makes boiled water look cloudy and leaves a deposit on the side of the kettle. This is normal but can be removed with regular cleaning.

●Alternatively, to reduce limescale build up, use filtered water to fill your kettle.

●A range of Kenwood jug water filters are available.
