DESCALING
n
For best performance, descale regularly. The amount of scale that
develops depends on the hardness of your water and how frequently the
kettle is used. Descale regularly, preferably at least once a month, more
often if your water is very hard. Keep in mind that you may have to
descale more often than indicated based on your water.
To descale your kettle or filter:
n
Always unplug the base and allow the kettle to cool before cleaning.
n
Use plain white vinegar at room temperature. When descaling the kettle,
fill with 2 cups of white vinegar and leave for one hour without heating.
For the filter, remove the filter from the spout, and soak with 1 cup of
white vinegar for one hour in a small cup or bowl.
n
Rinse kettle and filter very well with room temperature water multiple
times until completely clean. Repeat if necessary and allow to dry before
next use.
TROUBLESHOOTING
IF YOUR KETTLE SHOWS NO SIGN OF DAMAGE
n
When you place the kettle on the base, no beep sounds and the display
remains off.
- Check that the kettle is placed flat on the base and that the base is
plugged in.
- Unplug the base, wait a few minutes, and plug in again. If there is still
no beep or no display, consult your nearest KRUPS After Sales Service
Center.
n
The beep sounds continuously for 5 seconds.
- The kettle has been used without water or there is an excess of limes-
cale, triggering the safety override.
- If the kettle was used without water: leave the kettle to cool for a few
minutes and allow the safety override to reset. Fill the kettle with water
and turn on, the kettle will begin to operate after the safety override has
reset (approx 15 minutes).
