FAQs
How often should I descale the kettle?
The frequency of descaling depends on your water hardness. For most users, monthly descaling is recommended. If you notice slower boiling or visible scale, descale more frequently.
Can I put the kettle directly under a tap to fill it?
It is best to fill the kettle using a jug or by directing water into it from a tap, ensuring not to exceed the maximum fill line. Avoid submerging the kettle or its base in water.
What does STRIX technology do?
STRIX technology refers to safety features that include automatic shut-off when the water reaches boiling point and boil-dry protection, which prevents the kettle from operating if it's empty.
Is the permanent filter removable for cleaning?
Yes, the permanent filter is designed to be removable for easier cleaning and maintenance to help reduce limescale build-up.
What is the warranty period for the Aeno EK2 Kettle?
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's official documentation for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and retailer.
Does the double-wall construction keep water hot for a long time?
The double-wall construction helps to maintain water temperature for longer compared to single-wall kettles, and also keeps the exterior cool.
Troubleshooting
Kettle does not turn on.
Ensure the kettle is properly seated on its base and the base is plugged into a working power outlet. Check if the power switch is engaged.
Kettle switches off before boiling.
This might indicate the boil-dry protection has activated. Ensure there is sufficient water in the kettle. Allow it to cool before refilling.
Water is not boiling quickly.
Check for excessive limescale build-up inside the kettle. Descale the kettle according to the care instructions.
Exterior is unexpectedly hot.
While the double-wall design keeps the exterior cooler, steam from the spout can be hot. Avoid touching the spout area directly. Ensure the lid is closed properly during boiling.
