How to clean my Midea MKE17H1ASS kettle?

Unplug and let cool. For descaling, fill with 0.5 L of white vinegar and water, let sit for 1 hour, then empty and rinse. Wipe the outside with a damp cloth. The limescale filter is removed by pulling upward to wash under clean water.

What does the 'keep warm' mode mean?

It keeps the water at a chosen temperature for 60 minutes (except 100 °C). There are two modes: 'keep warm 1' heats to the selected temperature then holds; 'keep warm 2' first brings to a boil then cools and holds.

How to enable/disable button sound?

Press and hold both the adjustment and keep warm buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to enter silent mode. Repeat to reactivate sound.

What if my kettle does not heat?

Check that the plug is properly connected and the outlet works. Ensure the kettle is correctly placed on its base. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

Can I heat something other than water?

No, the kettle is designed only for heating water. Never use it for other liquids or foods.

How to avoid splashing boiling water?

Do not fill above the 'Max' mark and do not remove the lid during boiling. Always open it with the release button after turning off.
