1. Remove the wire rack from the oven before

replacing the light.

2. The light is positioned on the lefthand side of

the oven cavity. Position your ngers on the outside of the light housing and gently pull the glass cover away from the oven wall to remove it. If you are unable to pull the cover o, slide a spoon into the left side of the light housing and gently lever the glass cover o. Always hold the glass cover with the other hand to prevent the cover from falling and breaking.

3. Remove the used bulb by pulling it directly

4. Use a soft cloth to insert the new bulb.

Do not directly touch the surface of the bulb with your ngers as oil from your skin can damage the bulb.

5. To reattach the glass cover, align the metal

hook with the left side of the light housing. Slide the opposite end of the glass cover into the metal bracket on the right side of the housing, then push the metal hook into the left side of the housing until it snaps securely into position. NOTE The top of the oven is very hot during and after operation. As a result, storing items on top of the oven is not recommended. The only exception is the optional Sage Bamboo Cutting Board and Serving Tray that fits in the ribbed section on top of the oven. Visit www.sageappliances.com for more information.14 Care & Cleaning Before cleaning, ensure the oven is turned o by removing the power plug from the power outlet. Allow the oven and all accessories to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning. Cleaning the outer body and door

1. Wipe the outer body with a soft, damp sponge.

A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used to avoid build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning.

2. To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner or

mild detergent and a soft, damp sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Do not use an abrasive cleanser or metal scouring pad as these will scratch the oven surface.

3. Wipe the LCD screen with a soft damp cloth.

Apply cleanser to the cloth and not the LCD surface. Cleaning with dry cloth or abrasive cleaners may scratch the surface.

4. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior to inserting

the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on. WARNING Do not immerse the body, power cord or power plug in water or any other liquid as this may cause electrocution. Cleaning the interior The walls on the inside of the oven feature a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. To clean any splattering that may occur while cooking, wipe the walls with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used to avoid build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning. Avoid touching the quartz heating elements. WARNING Use extreme caution when cleaning the quartz heating elements. Allow the oven to cool completely, then gently rub a soft, damp sponge or cloth along the length of the heating element. Do not use any type of cleanser or cleaning agent. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior to inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on. Cleaning the crumb tray

1. After each use, slide out the crumb tray and

discard crumbs. Wipe the tray with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser may be used to avoid build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the tray, before cleaning. Dry thoroughly.

2. Always reinsert the crumb tray into the oven

with the oven door closed after cleaning and prior to inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on.

3. Always reinsert the crumb tray into the oven

with the oven door closed after cleaning and prior to inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on. Cleaning the wire rack, grilling rack, roasting pan and pizza pan

standing level on its support legs. Do not store anything on top. The only exception is the optional Sage Bamboo Cutting Board and Serving Tray.15

Oven will not switch "ON"

• Check that the power plug is securely inserted into the outlet.

• Insert the power plug into an independent outlet.

• Insert the power plug into a dierent outlet.

• Reset the circuit breaker if necessary. The LCD display light has gone out

• The oven goes into standby mode if not used for 10 minutes. When in standby mode, the LCD screen will cease to illuminate, however all function options will still be visible.

• To re-activate the oven out of standby mode, press the

Start/Cancel button on the control panel, or turn any dial. The LCD screen will re-illuminate. The pizza does not cook evenly

• Some large pizzas may brown unevenly in compact ovens. Open the oven door half way through the cooking time and turn the pizza 180 degrees for more even darkness. The Magnetic Auto-Rack Eject comes out too far when I open the door

• Always open the door slowly and in a controlled manner when the wire rack is inserted into the middle rack height position to prevent the wire rack from ejecting too quickly. I cannot select the Frozen button

• The Frozen button is only selectable for the following functions: TOAST, BAGEL, BAKE, PIZZA, AIR FRY. When selecting the Frozen button, this will automatically adjust the cooking time for an optimised food result. Steam is coming out from the oven door

• This is normal. The door is vented to release steam created from high moisture content foods such as frozen breads. Be mindful that the steam can be hot. The heating elements appear to be pulsing

accurately controls the heat inside the oven by pulsing the power and adjusting the power level in the heating elements in short bursts to give accurate temperature control. This is normal. Water is dripping onto counter from under door

• This is normal. The condensation created from high moisture content foods such as frozen breads will run down the inside of the door and can drip onto the counter. The temperature reading on the LCD screen doesn’t match the temperature measured inside the oven

• To ensure the measurements are standardized, the oven temperatures have been calibrated in the TOAST position (center of the middle rack with no tray in place). Re-check the temperature in this position, ensuring not to open the oven door for 30 minutes as heat will escape each time the door is opened. Note that the ‘preheat’ alert sounds at 75% of the target temperature. Troubleshooting16

POSSIBLE PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION

The ‘preheat’ alert sounds at a lower temperature than what is displayed on the LCD screen

• The ‘preheat’ alert sounds at 75% of the target temperature. This provides the fastest, combined preheating and cooking time.

• This is because when the ‘preheating’ alert sounds, signaling the user to open the oven door and insert food, there is dramatic temperature loss inside the oven. If the alert sounded at 100% of the target temperature, opening the door would mean a lot of this waiting time is “wasted”. We have calculated that by sounding the alert at 75% of the target temperature, followed by the oven door being opened to place food inside the oven, that we still recover to the target temperature up to 2 minutes faster. This is why the temperature on the LCD screen does not match the target temperature at the ‘preheat’ alert. Depending on the set temperature, it can take the oven approximately 8–10 minutes from start-up, including opening the oven door when the ‘preheat’ alert sounds, to reach the target temperature. The LCD screen displays ‘E01’

• The LCD screen will display ‘E01’ when there is a non-resettable issue with the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord from the power outlet and call Sage Consumer Support. The LCD screen displays ‘E02’

• The LCD screen will display ‘E02’ when there is a non-resettable issue with the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord from the power outlet and call Sage Consumer Support. The LCD screen displays ‘E03’

• The LCD screen will display ‘E03’ if the oven temperature is above the set maximum limit. Remove the plug from the power outlet, allow the oven to cool for 15 minutes, then plug back in.

• Call Sage Consumer Support if the ‘E03’ message continues. The LCD screen displays ‘E05’

• The LCD screen will display ‘E05’ when there is a non-resettable issue with the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord from the power outlet and call Sage Consumer Support. Temperature are changing when convection button is pressed

• This is normal. The temperature is calibrated to compensate for the convection fan increasing cooking rates.17
