Frequently Asked Questions - Icona Vintage KBOV2000 DELONGHI

How do I descale my DeLonghi Icona Vintage KBOV2000 kettle?

Mix a solution of white vinegar or citric acid with water, fill the kettle to the maximum level, and bring to a boil. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then empty and rinse thoroughly. Repeat if necessary, and do this regularly to maintain performance.

What capacity does the KBOV2000 have?

The DeLonghi KBOV2000 has a generous 1.7 liter capacity, allowing you to boil enough water for several cups of tea or coffee at once.

Can I boil less than the maximum capacity?

Yes, you can boil smaller amounts, but always ensure the water level is above the minimum mark inside the kettle to avoid dry boiling and potential damage.

How do I clean the limescale filter?

Remove the filter from the spout and rinse it under running water while brushing gently with a soft brush. For stubborn deposits, soak it in a descaler solution or vinegar, then rinse thoroughly before reinserting.

Is the kettle suitable for all stovetops?

No, the KBOV2000 is an electric kettle designed to operate on its base; it is not intended for use on gas or electric stovetops. Always use it on a flat, stable surface.

What should I do if the kettle doesn't switch off automatically?

If the kettle fails to shut off after boiling, unplug it immediately and contact DeLonghi customer service or an authorized technician. Do not operate the appliance until it has been inspected.

How do I avoid limescale build-up?

Use filtered or softened water when possible, and empty the kettle after each use. Regularly descale your kettle every few weeks, depending on the hardness of your water.

Can the kettle be used with any power outlet?

The kettle is designed for 220-240 V AC only. Always check that your local mains voltage matches the rating plate before connecting to the power supply.

What is the power cord length?

The power cord is approximately 75 cm long. The kettle sits on a 360° swivel base, so the cord can be positioned neatly to fit your countertop.

Can I open the lid while the kettle is boiling?

It is not recommended to open the lid while the kettle is in operation or immediately after boiling, as steam and hot water may escape, causing burns. Allow the kettle to cool slightly before opening.

USE

Before use

• Remove all packaging from the kettle and power base.
• Do not let children play with them to avoid suffocation hazard.
• Remove any labels from the outer stainless steel surfaces.
• Remove the filter (fig. 1) and wash with water (fig. 2). Refer to "Removing the scale filter".

• Fill the kettle to 'MAX' level and boil.
• The boiled water should be discarded and the kettle rinsed out with cold water. Repeat the boil and rinse steps for at least three times to remove any manufacturing dust, etc.
• After the kettle has been rinsed out, re-fit the filter (fig. 3).

In use

With the specially designed power base and central connector, you can now set the kettle on the base at any angle, from any position.

- Release cord from storage base and adjust length by winding around the base to give the correct cord length to reach the plug socket to be used (fig. 4).

- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces (for example the top B).

Filling

• Remove the kettle from the base unit before filling.
• Open lid and fill kettle to desired level.

Do not fill with less than 0,2 litre of water to prevent the kettle running dry while operating; misuse of this kind will shorten the life of the element.

Do not fill with more than 1 liter of water (up to the MAX level).

If the kettle is overfilled, there is a risk that boiling water may be ejected causing burns.

Switching on

• Plug the power base into the mains socket.
• Place kettle on power base.
• Press the ON/OFF switch down (fig. 5) to switch the kettle on.
• The pilot light will switch on.

- The kettle will automatically switch off once the water is boiled (the ON/OFF switch will click upwards and the lights will switch off).

- To turn the kettle off before the water boils, you may move the ON/OFF switch up to the OFF position, or

simply lift the kettle from its base - it will switch off and the switch will return to the OFF position automatically.

Pouring

• Remove the kettle from the power base and carefully pour out the water. Do not tilt the kettle suddenly or pour water out at too sharp an angle.
• When you lift the kettle from the base, you may see moisture on the top surface of the base. Condensation on the base is perfectly normal, and should not be a cause for alarm.

Please note: Empty the kettle after each use.

Rinse the kettle with fresh water if you have not used for more than two days. To reduce energy consumption and waste of water, use only the amount of water you need.

SAFETY DEVICES

1) Automatic ON/OFF switch:

Your kettle is fitted with an ON/OFF switch which automatically switches off once the water has boiled. If the kettle has just boiled, wait a minute or so before re-boiling the kettle. Do not attempt to hold the ON/OFF switch in the on position or adjust the switch mechanism.

2) Safety cut-out:

If the kettle is switched ON with too little or no water, it is protected against damage by a safety cut-out which will switch off the power. If this cut-out operates, disconnect the kettle from the mains supply and leave to cool down before refilling with cold water (otherwise the element could be damaged).

3) If kettle is lifted from base while operating (ON), it will automatically switch off.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the kettle

• Allow the kettle to cool down fully and disconnect the appliance from the mains before cleaning.
• Do not immerse the kettle or base in water.
• Use a soft dampened cloth to wipe the outside of the kettle and dry with a soft, dry cloth.
• DO NOT use metal polish, flammable liquids or harsh scouring agents.
• Ensure that all connectors and sockets are kept dry.

Scale

When the water is heated, the minerals in the water solidify, making the water appear cloudy. As soon as you notice a

film forming on the water, or, when cleaning the filter, if you notice a film on the walls or the element, descale the kettle and its filter.

Scale filter

Your kettle is fitted with a scale filter to prevent loose particles of scale being poured into your beverage. This filter is both removable and washable. You should remove and clean the water filter when you notice any deposits being left on the filter or if the pouring efficiency is impaired.

Removing the scale filter

• Allow the kettle to cool down fully.
• Disconnect the appliance from the mains electrical supply.
• Make sure that your hands are clean and free from soap, cream or anything which might taint the water.
• Empty the kettle and remove the filter as shown in fig. 1.
• Rinse under a tap whilst brushing with a soft brush (fig. 2).
• Replace the filter (fig. 3). Filter may pose suffocation risk, do not let it unattended after cleaning.

To clean the kettle and the scale filter

It is vital to clean and descale regularly in order to maintain good working order. Excessive scale build-up may affect the performance of the product and shall be avoided.

• Use descaler for kettles (tip: use citric-acid based descaling solutions). When limescale starts forming on the heating element, buy a suitable descaler for kettles and descale according to the instructions given on the descaler pack.
• After descaling, boil repeatedly with fresh water and rinse thoroughly to completely eliminate all residues of descaler which could damage the appliance. Repeat the boil and rinse steps for at least three times.
• If the filter requires descaling, remove and immerse in the same descaling solution.
• Make sure electric parts are completely dry before using the kettle.
