ELEMENT IQTM

The Sage Smart OvenTM Air Fryer features Element IQTM, a cooking technology that creates the ideal environment for the food you’re cooking. It steers power where and when it’s needed and creates the right kind of heat, whether even
or intense.
Each of the oven’s functions is preset with our recommended heating element configurations and temperatures, that are based on recipes and testing. However, we suggest experimenting with these depending on the recipe, amount of food and your personal taste.

OVEN FUNCTIONS OVERVIEW

OPERATING YOUR SAGE OVEN

1. Position the wire rack so the spokes face upward and insert it into the desired rack position. The rack positions are conveniently printed on the oven door window.

3. The screen indicates the preset cooking temperature for the selected setting.
   Turn the Temperature dial to the left to reduce the temperature or to the right to increase the temperature.

4. The screen indicates the preset cooking time for the selected setting. Turn the Time dial to the left to reduce the cooking time or to the right to increase the cooking time.

5. For settings without a preheat cycle (TOAST, BAGEL, GRILL, KEEP WARM, SLOW COOK), place the food directly on the wire rack or on the included air fry basket, pizza pan, grilling rack and/or roasting pan. Ensure the food is centered in the oven for the most even cooking.

6. Close the oven door.

7. Press the Start/Cancel button. The button backlight will illuminate red, the oven alert will sound, and the LCD screen will illuminate orange.

   • When the oven is ready for use, the blinking ‘PREHEATING’ will go out, the oven alert will sound and the timer will start counting down.

MAGNETIC AUTO-EJECT RACK
When the wire rack is inserted into the middle rack position, it will automatically eject halfway out of the oven when the door is opened so you can easily remove your food.
Always open the door slowly when the wire rack is in this position to prevent the rack from ejecting too quickly.

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, ensure the oven is turned off 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. To remove baked-on grease, soak the tray in warm soapy water then wash with a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
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

1. Wash all accessories in warm soapy water with a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleansers, metal scouring pads or metal utensils to clean any of the accessories as they may damage the surfaces.
2. To extend the life of your accessories, we do not recommend that these be placed in the dishwasher.

Storage

1. Ensure the oven is turned off by removing the power plug from the power outlet.
2. Allow the oven and all accessories to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning.
3. Ensure the oven and all accessories are clean and dry.
