Sunbeam are very safety conscious when
designing and manufacturing consumer products,
but it is essential that the product user also
exercise care when using an electrical appliance.
Listed below are precautions which are essential
for the safe use of an electrical appliance:
• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.
• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove
by grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.
• Turn the power off and remove the plug
when the appliance is not in use and
before cleaning.
• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked
and tested by a qualified technician or
service person.
• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked
on the appliance.
• Close supervision is necessary when your
appliance is being used near children or
infirm persons.
• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not use an appliance for any purpose
other than its intended use.
• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas
flame, electric element or on a heated oven.
Do not place on top of any other appliance.
• Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang
over the edge of a table or bench top or touch
any hot surface.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for adjustment or repair if required.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with a
damaged cord or after the appliance has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. If damage
is suspected, return the appliance to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• For additional protection, Sunbeam
recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit
supplying power to your appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.
If you have any concerns regarding the performance and use of your appliance,
please visit www.sunbeam.com.au or contact the Sunbeam Consumer Service Line
Ensure the above safety precautions are understood.

level indicator, boil and discard.
Using your kettle.
1.Push down on the button at the top of the
handle to open the hinged locking lid.
2.Fill the kettle with the desired amount of
water (minimum 1 cup / 250ml).
NOTE: Do not fill above the maximum level
indicator (marked on the water gauge as
“MAX”) as water may spill out of the
spout when boiling.
Alternatively, the kettle may be filled
through the pouring spout.
3.Push the lid closed firmly until it locks
into position.
4.Place the kettle on the power base and
connect the plug into a 230/240 Volt AC
power outlet. Turn the power ON.
5.Press the ON/OFF switch downwards. The
light will illuminate to indicate the kettle is
heating.
Note: Do not open the lid while the kettle
is in use.
6.The kettle will switch off automatically
once the water has boiled.
Note: Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is
clear of obstructions. The kettle will not
turn off if the ON/OFF switch is
constrained. Do not remove the kettle from
the power base while in use.
7.Lift the kettle from the power base and
pour the water.
8.The kettle may be stored on the power
base while not in use. The kettle will not
re-boil until the ON/OFF switch is pressed
downward.
Note: Ensure the power is turned off at the
power outlet when the kettle is not in use.
Should you accidentally allow the kettle to
operate without water, it will cut out for
boil-dry protection. If this occurs, allow the
kettle to cool before filling with cold water
and re-boiling.

Safety is a major consideration in the
design of a Sunbeam kettle. This is why we
have developed our 3-Way Safety System,
which ensures that your kettle will:
1. Automatically switch off after boiling.
For convenience, safety and energy
efficiency, your Sunbeam kettle features an
auto cut-out device.
2. Cut-out for boil-dry protection.
If the kettle is operated without water, it
will automatically cut-out, preventing any
damage to the element.
3. Shut-down in case of overheating.
In the event of overheating, the kettle will
automatically shut down to prevent further
damage. Should this occur, take your kettle
to a Sunbeam Service Centre or Appointed
Service Agent.

Safety System.

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.
Removal of mineral deposits.
Mineral deposits in tap water may cause
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. 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 polished exterior.
The stainless steel surface may be wiped
over with a damp cloth and polished with a
soft dry cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use chemical, steel wool,
or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of
the kettle, as these will scratch the
stainless steel surface.
To clean the mesh filter.
Press the button at the top of the handle
to open the hinged lid. Grasp the top of
the scale filter and pull upwards to
remove. Wash in warm soapy water and dry
thoroughly before replacing in the kettle.
