MAINTENANCE AND CARE
SCALE FILTER
Scale, or calcium, is a natural substance that forms when
hard water is boiled. The filter serves to retain the calcium
in the water kettle.
CLEANING AND REMOVAL OF THE FILTER
It is important to clean the filter regularly. The filter clips
into the body and can be removed by pulling it upwards
from the body. It can be cleaned by gentle brushing with a
soft brush under running water.
