Care and Cleaning

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 but may cause the water to appear cloudy when heated. This may cause the interior of the water gauge to discolour, 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 lifecycle.
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.

To remove this build-up, use Sunbeam Liquid Descaler, a simple to use, non- toxic cleaner available from electrical appliance specialists and Sunbeam Appointed Service Agents.

Alternatively:

Fill the kettle with 1 cup of white vinegar and the remainder with water and allow to stand DO NOT BOIL.
Empty the solution from the 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 plastic surface may be wiped over with a damp cloth and polished with a soft dry cloth.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the appliance, do not use alkaline, chemical or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft cloth and a mild detergent to protect the exterior surface.
To clean the mesh filter.

CAUTION: Before removing or refitting the filter, switch off the kettle and empty it. Allow it to cool completely, then unplug the power base from the main supplied socket. Never operate the kettle without the filter fitted.
Open the 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.

Cleaning the concealed heating element

This kettle features a non-corrosive stainless steel heating element. Over time, scale may build up on the concealed element inside the kettle, causing discolouration that may have the appearance of rust. Be assured this is not rust. If this occurs clean with a Scotchbrite scourer or similar and a suitable abrasive cleaning cream. Rinse and clean throughly with tap water before using your kettle again.
