Always remove the plug from the power outlet
before cleaning.
Never immerse the kettle switch area, kettle
jug base, cord or powerbase in water, or allow
moisture to come into contact with these
parts.
Cleaning the stainless steel heating plate
This kettle features a non-corrosive stainless
steel heating plate. Over time, scale may
build up on the heating plate inside the
kettle, causing discolouration that may have
the appearance of rust. Be assured this is
not rust. If this occurs clean with a green
Scotchbrite
®
scourer or similar and a suitable
abrasive cleaning cream. Rinse and clean
thoroughly with tapwater before using your
kettle again.
Removal of mineral deposits
Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the
interior to discolour. To remove this buildup,
use Sunbeam Liquid Descaler, a simple to
use, non-toxic cleaner available from
Sunbeam Appointed Service Centres.
Alternatively:
1. Fill the kettle with 1 cup 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.
The outside of the kettle can be wiped over
with a damp cloth.
CAUTION:
Do not use chemicals, steel wool,
or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of
the kettle.
To clean the mesh filter
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.
To clean the kettle exterior
Clean the exterior surface of your kettle with
a damp cloth and then wipe dry with a soft
dry cloth.
