Scale
Scale is mainly calcium carbonate (chalk), a harmless,
naturally occurring mineral found in most water supplies.
“Hard” water contains more of this mineral than “soft” water.
When the water is heated, the minerals in the water solidify,
making the water appear cloudy. These minerals form a thin
lm on the walls, element and on the surface of the water.
The water may look like it has white coloured pieces of plastic
oating on the surface. On traditional kettle elements,
scale forms a hard white “crust” which adversely aects
performance and reduces the life of the element. As soon
as you notice a lm forming on the water, or on the interior
walls of the kettle, simply rinse the kettle and wipe it out.
Scale lter
Your kettle is tted with a scale lter to prevent loose
particles of scale being poured into your beverage. This lter
is both removable and washable. The frequency with which
you will need to clean any scale deposits from your lter will
depend on the hardness of water in your area and how often
you use the kettle. You should remove and clean the water
lter when you notice any deposits being left on the lter or
if the pouring eciency is impaired.

Descaling
It is vital to clean and descale the kettle and lter regularly in
order to maintain it in good working order. Failure to descale
your kettle may invalidate your guarantee.

times and discard. Clean any descaler o the kettle – it
