BEFORE FIRST USE
Machine Preparation
Remove and discard all labels and packaging
materials attached to your espresso machine.
Ensure you have removed all parts and
accessories from the box before discarding
the packaging.
Remove the water tank located at the back of
the machine by pulling the water tank handle.
Clean parts and accessories (water tank,
portalter, lter baskets, jug) using warm water
and a gentle dish washing liquid. Rinse well
then dry thoroughly.
NOTE
Machines with colour, drip tray protection guard
is included. DO NOT DISCARD.
INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER
• Remove the water lter and water lter holder
from the plastic bag.
• Soak the lter in cold water for 5 minutes.
• Rinse the lter holder with cold water.
• Set the reminder for next month of replacement.
We recommend to replace the lter after 3
months.
• Insert the lter into the two parts of the lter
holder.
• To install the assembled lter holder into the
water tank, align the base of the lter holder with
the adapter inside the water tank.Push down
to lock into place.
NOTE
Replacing the water lter every three months will
reduce the need to descale the machine. Filters
can be purchased at www.sageappliances.com
NOTE
If your water hardness is either 4 or 5 when
tested, we strongly recommend you to change
to an alternate water source. Filtered water will
extend both the life of your built-in lter and
descale intervals as well as superior taste.
Please ensure to test the water hardness of
the alternative water source you’ve chosen and
input into the machine accordingly. Avoid using
overly ltered water, like RO water unless some
mineral content is being added back to the nal
water. Never use distilled water, or water with no
or low mineral content as this will aect the taste
of coee.

10
Attaching the Hopper
• Insert the bean hopper into position on top
of the machine.
• Turn the dial to lock the hopper into place.
• Fill the hopper with fresh beans.
TIP
We recommend quality 100% Arabica beans
with a ‘Roasted On’ date stamped on the bag,
not a ‘Best Before’ or ‘Use By’ date. Coee
beans are best consumed between 5–20 days
after the ‘Roasted On’ date. Stale coee may
pour too quickly from the portalter spouts and
taste bitter and watery.
Attaching the Drip Tray
• Place the drip tray grill on top of the drip tray.
• Machines with colour, attach the drip tray
protection guard cover on the drip tray.
• Slide the drip tray into the machine.
NOTE
Using the drip tray protection guard cover
is optional. But note that using the drip tray
protection guard can protect your drip tray from
dents and scratches.
Filling the Water Tank
• Ensure the water lter is securely tted inside
the water tank.
• Use the handle at the top of the water tank
to assist in lifting the water tank and away from
the machine.
MAX
• Fill the water tank with cold potable tap water
up to the MAX marking indicated on the side
of the water tank.
• Replace the water tank back on the machine,
pressing down to ensure that it is properly
positioned and attached to the machine.
MAX
NOTE
If the water level in the water tank is below the
minimum (MIN) marking, the espresso machine
will not operate.
