Frequently Asked Questions - 44-2006-1 Clas Ohlson

How do I descale the kettle?

Mix 100 ml of white vinegar (12%) with 300 ml of cold water or use a commercial descaling agent. Pour into the kettle, boil twice, then discard. Rinse by boiling fresh water three times. Descale every 2–3 months of daily use.

Can I use the kettle for anything other than water?

No, the kettle is designed for heating water only. Do not heat milk, oil, or other liquids to avoid damage or injury.

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

Ensure the filter is correctly fitted and the lid is closed properly. If the problem persists, unplug and contact customer service. Do not use if faulty.

Is the kettle safe for children to use?

Children aged 8 years and above can use it under supervision. Keep the kettle and cord out of reach of children under 8. Never leave children unattended near a hot kettle.

How do I clean the filter?

Pull the spout filter out of its retaining grooves, clean it under running water with a soft brush, then slide it back into place. Clean regularly to maintain performance.

Can I immerse the kettle or base in water?

No, never immerse the kettle, base, cord, or plug in water or any liquid. This can cause electric shock. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth only.

Descaling

Due to the natural occurrence of calcium in water, limescale deposits may form in the kettle after some use. Limescale deposits might lengthen the time needed for water to boil.

For descaling, use a mixture of water and white vinegar (acetic acid) or a special descaling agent that can be purchased at most supermarkets.

1. Mix 100 ml of white vinegar (12 %, not regular vinegar) with 300 ml cold water or follow the directions included with the descaling agent.
2. Pour the mixture into the kettle and turn it on. Boil up the mixture 2 times, and then pour it out.
3. In order to remove the last remnants of limescale and descaling agent, the kettle should be filled to the max mark with fresh cold water. Turn the kettle on and let it come to the boil.
4. Pour out the water and repeat this process 3 times. The kettle is now ready to use again.

The kettle should be descaled after 2–3 months daily use or whenever it has visible limescale deposits.
