Press the ‘On / Off’ switch to the ‘On’ position for water to boil.

It is essential that regular descaling takes place. The frequency will depend on the usage of the kettle and the hardness of the water in your area. A build-up of scale may cause the inside of the kettle to discolour and ultimately may damage the element. This will affect the efficiency of the appliance and may invalidate the warranty agreement.
