Getting your Swan 1.5 Litre Jug Kettle ready for use is straightforward. Following these guidelines will ensure longevity and optimal performance.
Unpack: Carefully remove the kettle and its base from the packaging.
Rinse: Before first use, fill the kettle with cold water and boil it. Discard this water to clean any manufacturing residues. Repeat 2-3 times.
Placement: Place the 360-degree power base on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface near a power outlet.
Connect: Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.
Power Supply: This kettle is designed to operate with standard household electrical outlets (e.g., 220-240V, 50/60Hz in most regions). Always check the rating label on the base of the kettle for specific power requirements.
Water Type: Suitable for use with potable tap water. For areas with hard water, regular descaling is highly recommended.
Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the kettle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scourers, as they can damage the finish. Ensure the kettle and base are completely dry before storage or next use.
Cleaning the Interior: Periodically clean the inside of the kettle. If a filter is present, remove and rinse it under running water.
Descaling: Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) can build up, especially in hard water areas. This can affect performance and taste. Descale your kettle regularly (e.g., monthly or as needed) using a commercial descaling solution suitable for kettles, or a natural method like a solution of white vinegar and water. Follow the descaler's instructions or boil a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water, let it sit for an hour, then rinse thoroughly several times.
Storage: When not in use, ensure the kettle is empty and dry. You can store the cord neatly in the base if it has a cord wrap feature.
