Care and Cleaning

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.
