You can use vinegar or special descaling agents for the first time.

2. Hold the button to open the lid (4) pressed.

3. Fill the jug with the required quantity of water (at least 0.5 litres, and a maximum of 1.7 litres). Never fill the water boiler over the "max". Otherwise the hot water can spatter out of the base.

Make sure that you do not spill any water on the base.

1. Release the button to open the lid.

2. Place the jug on the base, and insert the plug in the wall socket. Push down the On/Off switch. The On/Off pilot light will illuminate.

4. Remove the jug from the base by the handle, and pour the water out.

Be careful you do not contact the hot water. It can cause serious burning wounds.

1. When you wish to heat the water without it coming to the boil you can switch off the jug kettle at any time you require.

2. Remove the plug from the wall socket when you have finished using the jug kettle.
