You can obtain information about

- Decalcify the water at the latest
if the boiling process lasts for a
very long time or if rather heavy
calcareous deposits have formed
on the heating plate in the water
container.
• Pour the decalcifying liquid
into the water container. For
this you can mix household
vinegar with water in a ratio of
1:1 or use a standard
decalcifying agent. Adhere to
the manufacturer’s
specifications for use of a
decalcifying agent.
• Boil the decalcifying liquid in
the electric kettle.
• Let the liquid work for about
half an hour after boiling.
• Boil the liquid a second time is
there are severe calcareous
deposits.
• Then pour the liquid out.
• Boil fresh tap water and dump
it after boiling.
• Now the kettle is decalcified
and you can use it again as
usual.
14.3 Storage
As soon as the mains plug is
inserted into a socket and the
water container is placed on the
base, the appliance uses minimal
power, even if you are not boiling
water. Pull the mains plug out of
the socket, to disconnect the
kettle fully from the power supply
when you are not using it.
