Troubleshooting
Kettle is not whistling
Ensure the lid is securely closed and the spout cover is properly aligned. Check that the water level is adequate and that the whistle mechanism is not blocked by debris.
Water is boiling slowly
Verify that the kettle is placed correctly on the hob and that the hob is set to an appropriate heat level. Ensure the hob's surface is clean and flat for optimal contact.
Handle feels hot
While the handle is designed to be heat-resistant, prolonged exposure to very high heat or steam escaping from the spout can cause it to warm up. Ensure steam is not directly escaping onto the handle and that the kettle is not left on the heat for excessively long periods after boiling.
Discoloration on the base
This may be due to mineral deposits or slight scorching. Try cleaning the base with a specialized stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. Ensure the hob surface is clean and free from debris before placing the kettle.
