Quiet Boil Technology
The Sunbeam Silentio™ Kettle features new
Quiet Boil Technology that makes boiling water
a peaceful practice.
The quiet boil technology incorporates a
4mm thick, aluminium diffuser plate located
between the heating element and the kettle
floor, ensuring an even spread of heat
distribution into the water. The kettle floor is
also equipped with two textures – a smooth
polished, reflective surface and sand-blasted
textured area – which disperses the heat and
bubbles. The combination of the modified
element diffuser plate and selective texturing
gives rise to a significant noise reduction
throughout the whole boiling process.
Maintaining the Quiet Boil Technology.
Mineral deposits in tap water solidify when
the water is heated; lime scale may be white,
coloured, even rusty-looking and is normally
visible but phosphate scale isn’t generally
visible although may cause the water to
appear cloudy when heated.
Regular use of the kettle can lead to the
build-up of these minerals which reduces the
effectiveness of the Quiet Boil technology as
well as the performance of the kettle.
It is important to descale your kettle regularly
to maintain the Quiet Boil technology and to
prolong the life of the kettle.

Using your Silentio™ Kettle
Before using your kettle.
6.Lift the kettle from the power base and
pour the water.

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.
To clean the stainless exterior
The stainless steel surface may be wiped over
with a damp cloth and polished with a soft
dry cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use chemicals, steelwool, or
abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of the
kettle, as these will scratch the stainless
steel surface.
Descale Your Kettle Regularly.
Mineral deposits in tap water solidify when
the water is heated; lime scale may be white,
coloured, even rusty-looking and is normally
visible but phosphate scale isn’t generally
visible although may cause the water to
appear cloudy when heated. This may cause
the interior of the water gauge to discolour,
reduce the effectiveness of the Quiet Boil
technology, cause overheating, trigger the
boil-dry cut-out mechanism or even reduce
the kettle’s life.
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.
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
Even in soft water areas it is important to
descale your kettle regularly to help
maintains its lifecyle.
NOTE: Failure to descale products regularly
can be deemed as negligent handling and
any faults caused by mineral build up will
not be covered by the Sunbeam 12 Month
Guarantee.
®
Scotchbrite scourer or similar and a suitable
abrasive cleaning cream. Rinse and clean
thoroughly with tap water before using your
kettle again.
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. 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.
