Colours

The kettle features an illuminated water tank which changes colour to reflect the temperature of the water as it is heated. This allows you to easily identify the temperature of the water in the kettle at a glance. When the kettle is switched on the tank is illuminated blue. When the water temperature reaches 76°C, the water is illuminated purple. As the temperature heats to 86°C, the colour changes to orange. When the water temperature reaches 96°C, the water in the kettle is illuminated red. As the water in the kettle cools, the colour of the water reflects the current water temperature.

Descaling

IMPORTANT: As this appliance is fitted with a concealed element it must be descaled regularly. The frequency of descaling depends on usage and the hardness of the water in your area.

Excessive scale can cause the appliance to switch off before boiling and may damage the element invalidating the warranty.

It is essential that regular descaling takes place.

Remove hard scale using a proprietary descaling product suitable for stainless steel, glass or plastic.

For plastic kettles please follow the instructions carefully.

Alternatively use citric acid crystals (available from most pharmacies) as follows:

1Fill the appliance 3/4 full, boil, then unplug the appliance (remove the cordless kettle from the base unit) and stand it in an empty sink or bowl.

2Gradually add 50gm of citric acid crystals to the water, then leave the kettle to stand. Do not use a more concentrated solution.

3As soon as the effervescence subsides, empty the appliance and rinse it thoroughly with cold water.

4Wipe the outside of the appliance thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove all traces of acid which may damage the finish.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the electrical connections are completely dry before using the appliance.
