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.

steelwool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the
outside of the kettle, as these will scratch
the stainless steel surface.

Removal of mineral deposits.
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.

the interior of the water gauge to discolour.
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.
