Troubleshooting
Kettle won't turn on or heat water.
Ensure the kettle is properly seated on its 360° base and the base is securely plugged into a working power outlet. Check your household's circuit breaker.
Water is boiling slowly or kettle is noisy.
This is often caused by limescale buildup, especially in hard water areas. Regularly descale your kettle as per the care instructions provided.
Leaking from the spout or lid.
Ensure the lid is securely closed after refilling. Check if the kettle has been overfilled beyond the maximum fill line, as this can cause spillage during boiling or pouring.
