What is the warranty period for this kettle?

Please refer to your purchase documentation for specific warranty details, as this can vary by retailer and region.

How do I clean the exterior of the kettle?

What is the power consumption of the kettle?

Troubleshooting

Kettle does not turn on.

Ensure the kettle is properly seated on the 360° power base and that the base is plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the power switch is engaged.

Kettle stops boiling before reaching a full boil.

Verify that the automatic shut-off mechanism has not been triggered prematurely. Check for any blockages or debris around the heating element base inside the kettle. Ensure the kettle is not empty; it requires a minimum water level to operate safely.

Water leaks from the base.

Ensure the kettle is not overfilled. Check that the lid is properly closed and sealed. Inspect the kettle base for any cracks or damage. If the leak persists, discontinue use.

Limescale buildup is visible inside the kettle.

Descale the kettle regularly using a mixture of white vinegar and water or a commercial descaling solution. Boil the solution, let it sit, then rinse thoroughly and boil fresh water to remove any residue.

Kettle smells of plastic or chemicals.

Before first use, boil the kettle three times with fresh water each time, discarding the water after each boil. This helps to remove any manufacturing residues. Ensure all packaging materials have been removed.
