Using your Quantum Evo
Before using your kettle.
6.Lift the kettle from the power base and
pour the water.
It is recommended that you clean your kettle
before use by filling the kettle with water, up
to the maximum level indicator, boil and
discard.
NOTE: Use caution when pouring the water
from your kettle, as boiling water will
scald.
7.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.
Using your kettle.
1.To fill the kettle, remove it from the power
base and lift the lid, by pressing the
button on the handle. Alternatively, the
kettle may be filled through the pouring
spout.
Should you accidentally allow the kettle to
operate without water, boil-dry protection
will automatically switch it off. If this
occurs, allow the kettle to cool before
filling with cold water and re-boiling.
2.Fill the kettle with the desired amount of
water. Always fill the kettle between the
minimum and maximum marks. Too little
water will result in the kettle switching off
before the water has boiled.
NOTE: Do not fill the kettle over the
maximum level, as water may spill out of
the spout when boiling.
3.Push the lid closed firmly until it locks
into position.

Care and Cleaning
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.
CAUTION: Do not use chemicals, steelwool,
or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of
the kettle.
To clean the mesh filter.
Press the button on the handle to open the
hinged lid. Grasp the top of the mesh filter
and pull upwards to remove. Wash in warm
soapy water and dry thoroughly before
replacing in the kettle.
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.
Cleaning the concealed heating element
This kettle features a non-corrosive
stainless steel heating element. Over time,
scale may build up on the concealed
element 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 tap water before
using your kettle again.
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. Any
stains remaining inside the spout can be
removed by rubbing with a damp cloth. Fill
the kettle with clean water, bring to boil
and then discard the water. Repeat and the
kettle will then be ready to use.
The outside of the kettle can be wiped over
with a damp cloth.
