CARE AND CLEANING
Always switch off at the power outlet, and then unplug the appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.
Cleaning the Kettle Exterior
The outside stainless steel surface of the kettle may be wiped over with a damp cloth and polished with a soft, clean dry cloth.
Note: Do not use chemical, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the inside or outside of the kettle.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE DO NOT USE ALKALINE CLEANING AGENTS WHEN CLEANING, USE A SOFT CLOTH AND MILD DETERGENTS.
Warning: Never IMMERSE THE KETTLE BASE, SWITCH AREA, POWER BASE OR POWER SUPPLY CORD IN WATER, OR ALLOW MOISTURE TO COME IN CONTACT WITH THESE PARTS.
Cleaning the Removable Filter
The Kambrook Stainless Steel 1.7L Kettle features a removable mesh filter to filter out scale deposits for cleaner water. To remove the scale deposits, remove the filter by opening the lid of the kettle. Pull the filter firmly to remove.
The filter can be cleaned by running under hot water and rubbing with a soft cleaning cloth or brush. To replace the filter, simply press the filter down firmly into the slot behind the spout of the kettle.
TIP: The filter could become damaged with time, please check regularly and replace if found damaged.
Note: Ensure the kettle and water have cooled down before attempting to clean the filter.
Mineral deposits and
Discolouration
Due to the large surface area of the concealed element interior base, discolouration due to mineral deposits from tap water may appear more obvious by leaving a brown stain on the base. THIS IS NOT RUST.
To remove the discolouration, follow the instructions “Removing mineral deposits”.
Removing Mineral Deposits
Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the kettle interior and water window to discolour over time. This may be removed by using a proprietary kettle descaler which is available from most leading supermarkets, department stores and hardware stores.
Alternatively:
1.Fill the kettle until 2⁄3 full with 1 part vinegar (or a few slices of lemon) and 2 parts water, bring to the boil and allow to stand overnight.
2.Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill the kettle with clean water, bring to boil and discard the water. Repeat and the kettle will be ready
for use.
STORAGE
Ensure 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.
