Descaling
After some time, the boiling process will re-
sult in limescale being deposited in parts of
the kettle (depending on the hardness of the
water used). You should remove this at regu-
lar intervals, because otherwise the power
consumption of the device will increase.
1. Press the limescale filter 1 down and in-
wards.
2. Pull the limescale filter 1 off upwards
from the kettle 2. If there is limescale
residue in the limescale filter 1, place it
in the kettle when descaling.
3. Fill the limescale remover into the
kettle 2. Use a commercially available
limescale remover, e.g. limescale re-
mover for coffee machines. Comply
with the instructions on the packaging
of the limescale remover. You can find
the next steps in the instructions of the li-
mescale remover. Rinse the kettle multi-
ple times after descaling, if necessary.
