• Do not use abrasive or degreasing agents.

• Clean the inside of the kettle with soapy water.

After a period of time, calcareous deposits accumulate on the inside of the kettle. An excessive amount of lime may affect the proper functioning of the kettle. Thus, a decalcification can be necessary:

• Half fill the kettle with water and white vinegar (2 doses of water for 1 dose of vinegar).
• Boil this mixture and allow it to stand for the night.
• The following day, rinse the kettle and boil water for 2 or 3 times to vanish vinegar.

If the amount of lime is excessive, use a commercially-available decalcifying solution. Never try to decalcify the kettle by chipping away or scratching.
