Using Your Kambrook Kettle Continued... Care, Cleaning and Storage

WARNING: Do not

remove the kettle from
the power base during
operation. Ensure the
kettle has switched to the
‘OFF’ position after the
water has boiled before
removing the kettle from
the power base.

WARNING: This kettle is
designed for the boiling
of quality drinking water
only. Never use it to heat
or boil any other liquids
or foodstuffs. The lid

Safety Boil Dry Protection

The kettle is fitted with a safety device
which protects against overheating
should the appliance be operated
with insufficient water. If this occurs
the kettle will stop heating and
automatically switch ‘OFF’. Should
this occur, switch off at the power
outlet and unplug. Allow kettle to
cool before refilling. Remove the
kettle from the power base and add
water. Return the kettle to the power
base and switch the power On/Off
button to ‘ON’. The safety device will
automatically reset.

Always switch the kettle off at the
power outlet and then unplug the
kettle from the power outlet before
cleaning.

Cleaning the Kettle Exterior

The outside surface of the kettle may
be wiped over with a soft damp cloth
and polished with a soft clean dry
cloth.

WARNING: Do not use
chemical, steel wool,
or abrasive cleaners
to clean the inside or
outside of the kettle.

WARNING: To prevent
damage to the kettle, 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
of power supply cord in
water or allow moisture
to come in contact with
these parts.

Cleaning the Removable
Filter

Your kettle features a removable
stainless steel mesh filter to filter out
scale deposits for cleaner water.
The filter is situated inside the kettle
over the spout and behind the plastic
guard. To remove for cleaning, push

Care, Cleaning and Storage Continued...

Notes

WARNING: Ensure the
kettle and water has
cooled down before
attempting to clean the
filter and appliance.

WARNING: Do not place
a load on the top of the
glass kettle or knock the
glass on a hard surface
or drop the kettle. The
glass may break. Always
take care cleaning or
filling the kettle.

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 below ‘Removing
Mineral Deposits’.

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.

Removing Mineral Deposits

Mineral deposits in tap water may
cause the kettle interior 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.
