Always disconnect the kettle from the power
outlet before cleaning.
Never immerse the kettle switch area, cord
or power base in water, or allow moisture to
come into contact with these parts.
Descale Your Kettle Regularly
Mineral deposits in tap water solidify when
the water is heated; lime scale may be white,
coloured, even rusty-looking and is normally
visible but phosphate scale isn’t generally
visible although may cause the water to
appear cloudy when heated. This may cause
the interior of the water gauge to discolour,
cause overheating, trigger the boil-dry cut-out
mechanism or even reduce the kettle’s life.
Even in soft water areas it is important
to descale your kettle regularly to help
maintains its lifecyle.
To remove this build-up, use Sunbeam Liquid
Descaler, a simple to use, non-toxic cleaner
available from Sunbeam Appointed Service
Agents.
Alternatively:
1. Fill the kettle with 3 cups of white vinegar
and the remainder with water and allow to
stand overnight. DO NOT BOIL.
2. Empty the solution from the kettle. Any
stains remaining inside the spout can be
removed by rubbing with a damp cloth. Fill
the kettle with clean water, bring to boil
and then discard the water. Repeat and the
kettle will then be ready to use.
To clean the stainless exterior
The stainless steel surface may be wiped over
with a damp cloth and polished with a soft
dry cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use chemicals, steelwool,
or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of
the kettle, as these will scratch the stainless
steel surface.
To clean the mesh filter
Press the button on the handle to open
the hinged lid. Grasp the top of the mesh
filter and pull upwards to remove. Wash in
warm soapy water and dry thoroughly before
replacing in the kettle.
