descaling
Regular descaling of the flat element
will improve the performance of your
kettle. If the kettle is not descaled
regularly the build up of limescale
may result in the following:
G
problems may be experienced
with the kettle switching on and
off during use or switching off
before boiling.
G
the kettle may take longer to boil.
G
the flat element may be damaged.
When limescale starts to build up on
the heating element, buy a suitable
descaler and descale your kettle.
After descaling, boil with fresh water
several times and discard. Clean any
descaler off the kettle - it can
damage the parts.
Some regions of the country have
chalky water. This makes boiled
water look cloudy and leaves a
deposit on the side of the kettle. This
is normal but can be removed with
regular cleaning.
Alternatively, to reduce limescale
build up, use filtered water to fill your
kettle.
A range of Kenwood jug water filters
are available.
If the cord is damaged it must, for
safety reasons, be replaced by
KENWOOD or an authorised
KENWOOD repairer.
