FAQs

How do I clean the limescale filter?

Remove the filter from the kettle and rinse it under running water. You can also use a soft brush to remove any stubborn deposits. Make sure it is completely dry before replacing it.

What kind of water should I use?

Use fresh, clean water for the best results. Filtered water is recommended to reduce limescale buildup.

Can I boil water without the lid?

No, the lid must be closed for the kettle to operate safely.

What is the keep-warm function for?

The keep-warm function maintains the water at the selected temperature for up to 30 minutes, allowing you to have hot water ready whenever needed.

How do I descale the kettle?

Follow the descaling instructions provided by KitchenAid. Typically, this involves using a descaling solution or a mixture of water and vinegar. Run a cycle with the solution, rinse, and then boil a full kettle of plain water before use.

Is the kettle safe to touch when it is boiling?

The exterior of the kettle stays cool to the touch due to the dual-wall construction, however, the lid and spout can still be hot, so handle with care.

What is the warranty period?

The KitchenAid Artisan Kettle comes with a 3-year guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Kettle does not turn on.

Check that the kettle is properly connected to the power outlet and that the outlet is working. Also, ensure the kettle is correctly placed on the base.

Kettle takes a long time to boil.

Ensure the correct voltage. Check for limescale buildup, descale the kettle if necessary. Boiling time may also be impacted if the water level is too high.

Water tastes like plastic.

This is unlikely, but if it happens, boil and discard a full kettle of water a few times to eliminate any manufacturing residue. Always use fresh water.

Kettle shuts off before boiling.

Ensure that the kettle has enough water, and that the lid is closed properly. If the issue persists, the kettle might need descaling, or there could be a problem with the heating element. Contact KitchenAid support.
