OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove any promotional material attached to your kettle. It is recommended
that before first use, the kettle is filled to the maximum level with cold tap
water, boiled and water discarded.
OPERATION OF YOUR KETTLE
To fill the kettle, remove it from the power base and open lid by pressing the
lid release button. Fill with the desired amount of water.
NOTE
Always fill the kettle between the minimum (500ml) and maximum (1700ml) marks
on the water window. Ensure the lid is locked firmly into place. Position the
kettle securely onto the power base. Insert the power plug into a 230–240V
power outlet and switch on. Press the ‘On / Off’ switch to the ‘On’ position
for water to boil.
NOTE
This kettle must only be used with the power base supplied. Use caution
when pouring water from your kettle, as boiling water will scald. Do not pour
the water too quickly.
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. Switch ‘Off’ at the power outlet and allow kettle to
cool before refilling. Remove the kettle from the power base and add water.
Return the kettle to the power base. The safety device will then automatically
reset. For additional safety, your kettle is fitted with an additional thermal
cut out. In the event of overheating, the kettle will automatically shut down
to prevent further damage. Should this occur, take your kettle to an
authorised Sage® Service Centre.
CARE & CLEANING
Always switch ‘off’ at the power outlet and unplug the appliance from the power outlet before cleaning.
REMOVABLE FILTER
The kettle features a removable mesh filter to remove scale deposits for
cleaner water. To remove the scale deposits from the filter, open the lid and
slide the filter up and out of the kettle. The filter can be cleaned by
running under hot water and rubbing with a cleaning cloth or brush. To replace
filter, simply slide the filter down into the slot behind the spout of the
kettle and push back into position.
NOTE
The concealed element in the base of the kettle is made from high quality
stainless steel. Any brown stains appearing are the result of mineral deposits
and are not rust.
DESCALING
It is essential that regular descaling takes place. Frequency will depend on
the usage of the kettle and the hardness of the water in your area. A build-up
of scale may cause the inside of the kettle to discolour and ultimately may
damage the element. This will affect the efficiency of the appliance and may
invalidate the warranty agreement. We recommend the use of Sage® “the
Descaler” as it’s specially formulated for descaling kettles. To order visit
