Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before first use, fill the kettle to the maximum mark, boil, and discard the water to remove any manufacturing residue. The kettle should be placed on a flat, dry, and stable surface near a grounded power outlet. To ensure longevity, use the water gauge to avoid overfilling past the max line. To clean the exterior, use a soft, damp cloth; avoid abrasive sponges that might scratch the stainless steel finish. If you live in a hard water area, descale the kettle periodically by boiling a mixture of white vinegar and water or a commercial descaling solution to maintain heating efficiency.
