8.THE KETTLE MAY HAVE AN INTERNAL LIGHT, DEPENDING ON MODEL
9.THE KETTLE WILL SWITCH OFF AUTOMATICALLY
as soon as the water reaches boiling point or the chosen temperature. You can stop it manually, before removing it from its base to pour the water. Depending on the model, the interior light and the indicator light will go out when the water reaches boiling point. Make sure that the on/off button is in the off position after boiling and that the kettle has switched off before removing it from its base.
•Do not leave water in the kettle after use as this quickens the formation of scale.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR KETTLE
Unplug it.
Let it cool down and clean it with a damp sponge.
•Never immerse the kettle, its base, the cord or the electric plug in water: the electrical connections or the switch must not come into contact with water.
•Do not use scouring pads.
CLEANING THE FILTER (ACCORDING TO THE MODEL) (fig 9)
The removable filter consists of a mesh to retain the particles of scale and prevent them falling into your cup when pouring. This filter neither treats nor removes the hardness of the water. It thus conserves all the qualities of the water. With very hard water, the filter can clog very quickly (10 to 15 uses). It is important to clean it regularly. If it is wet, put it under a running tap, if dry, then brush it gently. Sometimes the scale will not detach itself; it will then need descaling.
