Place holder into kettle so small divet aligns with small notch inside Kettle. Push in. See images below.) Rinse the inside of the Kettle with water.
Cleaning and Maintenance DESCALING For the best tasting hot water and tea, descale the Kettle regularly to remove any mineral deposits that may accumulate over time and cause discoloration. Descaling is recommended at least once a month, or more regularly if your water is very hard. Descaling Methods • To descale with white vinegar: Fill the Kettle with .3 liter water and .3 liter white vinegar and press PLAY to boil. Once water comes to a boil, turn Kettle off and let stand for 1 hour.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution Kettle has become disconnected Insert the plug into the electrical outlet Kettle is not properly connected to base Ensure that the Kettle is properly inserted onto the base Kettle was turned on without water and overheated Allow the Kettle to cool and fill with water. It should start working in about 15 minutes Kettle is new Spill out the water and boil clean water.
Tips • Use filtered water for best tasting results. • After steeping tea, swirl water around for maximum flavor. (Before swirling, use stay-cool handle to lift Kettle off base.) • The longer you steep your tea, the stronger the flavor will be. • Remove infuser from Kettle immediately after steep timer expires to avoid over-steeping. Over-steeping results in bitter tea. • The Chefman Programmable Kettle is also great for steeping tea bags.
