When the water is heated, the minerals in the water solidify, making the water appear cloudy. These minerals form a thin film on the walls,element and on the surface of the water.The water may look like it has white coloured pieces of plastic floating on the surface. On traditional kettle elements, scale forms a hard white “crust” which adversely affects performance and reduces the life of the element. As soon as you notice a film forming on the water, or when cleaning the filter, if you notice a film on the walls or the element, simply rinse the kettle and wipe it out. Scale filter Your kettle is fitted with a scale filter to prevent loose particles of scale being poured into your beverage.This filter is both removable and washable. The frequency with which you will need to clean any scale deposits from your filter will depend on the hardness of water in your area and how often you use the kettle. You should remove and clean the water filter when you notice any deposits being left on the filter or if the pouring efficiency is impaired. Removing the scale filter • Allow the kettle to cool down fully. • Disconnect the appliance from the mains electrical supply. •Make sure that your hands are clean and free from soap, cream or anything which might taint the water. • Empty the kettle and open the lid. Remove the filter by pushing the catch down and lifting up (see figure 1) • Rinse under a tap whilst brushing with a soft brush (fig. 2). • Replace the filter sliding it firmly down (see fig. 3). 5 Kettle KBC3010/ KBX3010 182IDL 20-09-2002 8:04 Pagina 6 To clean the scale filter It is vital to clean and descale regularly in order to maintain good working order • Use a proprietary descaling product e.g. citric acid crystals. We recommend using citric acid crystals as follows: • Pour into kettle about 50 gr. or 2 oz. of citric acid crystal and then fill with water up to the max level indicated and then boil. Allow the contents to cool, and then rinse thoroughly. • Do not use a more concentrated solution. If the filter requires descaling, remove the filter and place into the citric acid solution. • Ensure that the electrical connections are completely dry before using the kettle. • Citric acid crystals are available from most pharmacies. Safety Warnings Please read these instructions before operating and retain for future reference. • Ensure that your mains supply voltage is the same as that marked on the underside of your kettle. •To protect against electrical hazards do not immerse the mains lead, plug power base or kettle in water or any other liquid. Do not use in the bathroom or near any source of water. Do not use outdoors. • Do not touch hot surfaces i.e. body or lid. Use handles or knobs. • Do not remove the lid while the kettle is boiling. •Take care when pouring - do not over-tilt the kettle as water may enter into the switch mechanism. •Water can remain hot for a long time after boiling and can present a scald hazard. Keep the kettle and the mains lead away from the edge of the work surface and out of the reach of children. • Do not allow the mains lead to hang over the edge of the table or work surface, or anywhere it may be accidentally caught or tripped over. • Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. • Remove the plug from the mains socket when not in use and before cleaning.Allow the kettle to cool before cleaning. • Remove the kettle from its power base before filling. •Never move the kettle whilst it is in use. • Do not use the kettle if you have wet hands. •Keep the kettle, the power base, and the mains lead away from hotplates, hobs or burners. 6 Kettle KBC3010/ KBX3010 182IDL 20-09-2002 8:04 Pagina 7 • Do not use the kettle for any purpose other than heating water. Do not place any utensils into the kettle.The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock or personal injury. •Never use the kettle without its lid. •Position the kettle properly on the power base before switching on. • Use the kettle only with the power base supplied (and vice versa). • Do not operate this kettle if the mains lead or plug is damaged, if the kettle malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. It must be returned to a service agent for repair or replacement in order to avoid hazard. • The power cable must not be replaced by the user as this requires the use of special tools. If the power cable is damaged, contact an authorized Service Centre. • If the kettle is overfilled, boiling water may overflow. 7 Kettle KBC3010/ KBX3010 182IDL 20-09-2002 8:04 Pagina 8 Electrical Requirements The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 13 amp capacity.Should this plug not fit the socket outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug, following the procedure outlined below.
