Frequently Asked Questions - Inox 6462 OBH NORDICA

How do I descale the kettle?

Use a descaling agent like citric acid. Follow product instructions, heat to about 50-60°C, then rinse thoroughly. Do not use vinegar.

Why does the kettle turn off before the water boils?

This may be due to scale buildup. Descale the kettle as described in the manual. If problem persists, contact service.

How do I clean the lime filter?

Remove the filter by opening the lid and pushing it down and outward. Brush under running water or soak in descaling liquid. Reinsert into spout notches.

Can I put the kettle or base in the dishwasher?

No, neither the kettle nor the base is dishwasher safe. Wipe with a damp cloth only.

What is the maximum water level?

The maximum capacity is 1.2 liters. Do not fill above the MAX mark to avoid boiling water spurting out.

How does the safety lid work?

The lid is hinged and lockable. Press the locking device at the top of the handle to open. It reduces scalding risk if the kettle tips over.

What should I do if the dry-boiling fuse activates?

Check for scale deposits at the bottom. Descale if needed. If the fuse still cuts off before boiling, return the kettle to the store.

Can I use the kettle without water?

No, never operate the kettle without water as this may damage the heating element and activate the dry-boiling fuse.

How do I adjust the cord length?

Wind any excess cord under the base. Keep the cord as short as possible and not hanging from the edge of the table.

Is the kettle suitable for children?

Children aged 8+ can use it under supervision. Keep the kettle and cord out of reach of children under 8. Cleaning by children only if over 8 and supervised.

How to use the kettle

Pour water into the kettle, see the marking on the external water level gauge and close the lid. Do not add water when the kettle is positioned on the base. The water used for the first couple of boiling must not be used as the kettle may have small impurities from the production.

NOTE: The kettle is equipped with a hinged, lockable safety lid that reduces the risk of scald considerably as the lid will not fall off if the kettle should overturn. The lid opens by pressing the locking device (situated at the top of the handle). Always remember to press the lid into place after filling.

WARNING! If the kettle is filled with too much water (that is above the MAX marking), boiling water might spurt out of the appliance. The maximum capacity of the kettle is 1.2 litres and this amount must never be exceeded. Never switch on the kettle without water.

The kettle consists of two parts: The kettle itself and a separate, conductive base on which the kettle can be placed in any position. The kettle shall be used only with the delivered base. Adapt the length of the cord and wind up any exceeding cord under the base. The cord should be as short as possible and must not hang from the edge of the table in order to be out of children's reach. Turn on the kettle by depressing the on/off switch below the handle, the pilot lamp lights. Note that the surface of the kettle gets very hot during use.

When the water is boiling, the kettle will automatically turn off after a few seconds, the switch will go back – you will hear a click - and the lamp will go off. Every time the kettle is removed from the base, the switch will automatically disengage and the lamp will go out. This prevents unintended heating, when the kettle is put back on the base. So, if the kettle has been removed from the base for a short period of time e.g. in order to fill in extra water – REMEMBER always to switch on the appliance again. Always unplug the kettle when not in use.

IMPORTANT: Always keep the lid closed when the kettle is used. Otherwise the automatic steam switch will not work and there will be a risk that boiling water will spurt out of the kettle. The automatic switch off function is extremely sensitive in order to react at the right moment. In case the switch off function becomes irregular (the kettle turns off too early or too late), scaling could be the reason for the error (see instructions for descaling).

Scaling and dry-boiling fuse

The kettle comprises an incorporated, double dry-boiling fuse: If the heating unit is dressed with lime at the bottom, is connected without water or boils dry, the dry-boiling fuse will be activated and the heating unit cut off automatically. If this happens, check the kettle as to scale deposits in the bottom and descale if necessary. Test the kettle by filing in water and connect the appliance.

If the fuse still cuts off the heating unit before the water is boiling, return the kettle to where it was bought.

Scale filter

The kettle comprises a lime filter in the spout. Remove the filter for cleaning in the following way: Open the lid of the kettle and carefully push the filter down and then outwards. Now the lime on the filter can be brushed off under running water using a soft dish brush or you can immerse it into the descaling liquid for a few minutes, when you do your regular descaling of the kettle. Put the filter back into the notches in the spout and press it into place.

It is very important that the lime filter is cleaned before it is all dressed in lime, which will prevent the water from passing through the filter and seep along the sides at the lid, which may cause scalds.

Descaling and cleaning

Clean the kettle at regular intervals for scale and be aware of the following:

• Only boil the necessary amount of water – to save current. Empty the kettle after each use. This will reduce the amount of scale, and coffee and tee, brewed on fresh water, have a better taste.
• Check the status of scale often. If there is scale in the kettle, use one of the ordinary descaling means – such as e.g. citric acid. Do not use ordinary household vinegar for descaling of the kettle. It is extremely important to carefully follow the instructions of the product and that the product is poured out after the duration of action and that the water used for the first couple of boiling after descaling is not used.
• If there is still a lot of scale left on the heating unit, descale the kettle again and make sure to descale regularly in the future.
• The descaling process is accelerated by heating the liquid to about 50-60°C.

IMPORTANT: Do not use sharp objects for descaling/cleaning of the heating unit at the bottom of the kettle. If you do not descale the kettle at regular intervals, the kettle will be damaged. Such damage will not be covered by the warranty.

The exterior of the kettle can be wiped with a soft cloth dampened in a detergent. Wipe with a dry, soft cloth or paper towel. Do not use scouring powder or other aggressive detergents that may scratch the surface of the kettle. Do not put the kettle or the base in the dishwasher.

Disposal of the appliance

Legislation requires that all electrical and electronic equipment must be collected for reuse and recycling. Electrical and electronic equipment marked with the symbol indicating separate collection of such equipment must be returned to a municipal waste collection point.

Warranty

Warranty according to current law. Any claim shall be accompanied by the cash receipt with purchase date. When raising a claim the appliance must be returned to the store of purchase.
