Depending on the hardness of the water in your area, small spots may appear on the heating
element of your kettle when you use it. This phenomenon is the result of scale build-up on
the heating element and on the inside of the kettle over time. The harder the water, the
faster scale will build up. Scale can occur in different colours. Although scale is harmless, too
much scale can inluence the performance of your kettle. Descale your kettle regularly by
following the instructions given in the chapter 'Descaling'.
