Maintaining Your Kambrook Stainless Kettle
Always switch appliance off at the power outlet and then unplug before cleaning.
Cleaning the Kettle Exterior
The Kambrook Stainless Steel Kettle outside surface may be wiped over with a damp cloth and polished with a soft, clean dry cloth.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the appliance, do not use alkaline cleaning agents when cleaning, use soft cloth and mild detergent.
NOTE: Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the inside or outside of the kettle.
WARNING: Never immerse the kettle base or power supply cord in water, or allow moisture to come in contact with these parts.
Mineral deposits and discolouration
Due to the large surface area of the concealed element interior base, discolouration due to mineral deposits will appear more obvious. The mineral deposits can leave a brown rust stain on the base. THIS IS NOT RUST.
To remove the discolouration follows the cleaning instructions “Removal of mineral deposits”.
Removal of Mineral Deposits
Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the kettle interior to discolour over time. This may be removed by using a kettle descaler which
is available from most leading supermarkets, department and hardware stores.
Alternatively: Fill the kettle with 2/3 full with 1 part vinegar (or a few slices of lemon) and 2 parts of water, bring to the boil and allow to stands overnight.
Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the kettle with clean water, bring to the boil and discard the water. Repeat and the kettle will be ready for use.
Storage
Ensure that the kettle is switched off, cleaned and dried before storing. Ensure that the lid is closed and locked firmly into place. Wrap the power cord around the cord storage under the power base.
Stand the kettle upright on the power base. Do not store anything on top.
