Care and cleaning of your electric kettle
1.  Turn off kettle and unplug cord. Allow to cool. Mineral 
deposits in tap water may cause scale deposits to form 
inside the electric kettle after frequent use. To remove 
this scale build-up, fill the kettle with a solution of 1 cup 
of white vinegar and 1 cup water. Let sit overnight.
2.  Empty the vinegar solution from the kettle. Remove any 
stain remaining inside by rubbing with a damp cloth.
3.  Fill the kettle with clean water. Place kettle on power 
base and bring to a boil, then discard water. Repeat and 
the kettle will be ready to use.
4.  The kettle will not operate again until the on/off switch is 
pressed downward.
5.  Always remove kettle from power base and disconnect 
power base from electrical outlet before cleaning. Do 
not immerse kettle, power base or cord in water or any 
other liquid.
6.  The outside of the electric kettle can be wiped with a 
soft damp cloth.
   NOTE: Never use any chemical, steel wool, or abrasive 
cleaners to clean any part of the kettle, including the 
power base cord.
