cleaning the kettle and the base
1 Clean the outside of the kettle and the base with a soft cloth
moistened with warm water and some mild cleaning agent.
Do not let the moist cloth come into contact with the cord, the plug and
the connector of the base.
Cleaning the filter
Scale is not harmful to your health but it may give your drink a powdery
taste. The anti-scale filter prevents scale particles from ending up in your
drink.
Clean the Triple action anti-scale filter regularly in the following way:
1 Take the entire filter out of the kettle (Fig. 14).
 Slide the basket off the filter and take the stainless steel mesh out
of the basket.
 To clean the mesh, squeeze and rotate it under a running tap.
4 Gently clean the filter with a soft nylon brush.
5 Put the mesh back into the filter basket and slide the basket onto
the filter again. Then slide the filter back into the kettle.
Note: You can also clean the filter in two other ways. Leave the filter in the
kettle when you descale the kettle (see section ‘Descaling the kettle’) or
remove it from the kettle and clean it in the dishwasher.
