Frequently Asked Questions - VALKRETROB VALBERG

How to use the kettle for the first time?

Fill the kettle with fresh water up to the MAX mark, boil it, then discard the water. Repeat 2 to 3 times before first use.

How to descale the kettle?

Fill the kettle halfway with tap water and add the juice of one lemon. Bring to a boil and let it sit for 15 minutes. Repeat three times, then rinse thoroughly.

How to clean the anti-scale filter?

Remove the kettle from the base, open the lid. Push the filter clip down to release it. Rinse it with warm water and remove deposits with a soft brush. Reassemble by hooking the bottom part first.

What to do if the kettle does not turn on?

Check that the base is plugged in and the switch is in the on position. If the indicator light does not come on, make sure the lid is properly closed and the base is dry. If the problem persists, wait 15-20 seconds before trying again.

Can I boil other liquids besides water?

No, this kettle is designed exclusively for boiling water. Using other liquids may damage the appliance or cause injury.

Why does the kettle turn off before the water boils?

This may be due to a lack of water: the boil-dry protection activates if the level is too low. Fill at least to the MIN mark and make sure the lid is properly closed.

How to clean the exterior of the kettle?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. Clean the exterior with a soft damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth. Never use corrosive products or metal objects.

Can I immerse the kettle in water?

No, never immerse the kettle, cord, or plug in water or any other liquid. This could cause electric shock.
