## Maintenance and use
Before use you need to remove the labels and packaging. Also make sure you clean the kettle with warm water. Afterwards bring pure water to a boil and pour out the contents after it starts to boil. Make sure the kettle is never filled further than the line on the outside of the kettle. However, to prevent the kettle from boiling dry you do need to fill it up to at least the bottom row of ‘dots’ on the inside of the kettle. Boiling it dry can damage the kettle or cooking hob, something you want to avoid at all costs.
Always select the right heat source and temperature when boiling water. When using a stove make sure that the flames never reach further than the base of the kettle. After removing the kettle from the cooking hob make sure you wait 5 or 10 seconds before you open the whistle. You need to allow the kettle to completely cool down before you boil more water. These kettles are namely not equipped to handle that difference in temperature. If you don’t use the kettle we recommend you empty it and dry it properly. This prevents calcification and keeps the kettle working efficiently.
