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, reduce the effectiveness
of the Quiet Boil technology, 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 maintain its lifecyle.
Note:
Failure to descale products regularly can
be deemed as negligent handling and any faults
caused by mineral build up will not be covered by
the Sunbeam 12 Month Guarantee.
