Limescale filter
(depending on model)
Depending on the hardness of the local water,
a layer of limescale may form inside your
kettle. If this happens, when the water boils,
particles of limescale may be found in the
water you pour. To prevent this from
occurring, we have equipped the kettle with a
special limescale filter which retains the
particles of scale when you pour water.
