FROTHING HOT MILK

Place the milk frother on a flat level surface and plug the power cord into a 220–240V power outlet. The START | STOP button surround will illuminate.

Select the 'Capp' or 'Latté' frothing disc.
Choose the 'Capp' disc for thick and creamy froth or the 'Latté' disc for smooth and silky milk.

Insert the frothing disc onto the shaft at the base of the milk jug. Ensure the disc is inserted the correct way with the wider part of the disc at the bottom of the jug. The disc should 'click' securely onto the shaft.

NOTE
If the disc is not inserted correctly it may dislodge during operation, a grinding noise may be heard, or milk will not swirl.

Frothing disc is a choking hazard. Children must always be supervised and never left unattended with the appliance.

Pour the required amount of cold, fresh (or freshly opened) milk into the milk jug then cover with the jug lid.

NOTE
Never operate without the minimum level of liquid in the milk jug. The milk frother will automatically turn off if the milk jug is empty. If this occurs, you will need to wait for the milk frother to cool down before reuse.

Ensure the jug lid is securely attached. Place the milk jug onto the power base.
Turn the START / STOP push-dial to the desired temperature.

Only press the START / STOP push-dial once, firmly. Frothing has started once the milk frother beeps once and the button surround slowly flashes.

NOTE
Do not remove the milk jug from the power base during operation. Doing so may dislodge the frothing disc and cause a grinding noise. Always press the centre of the START / STOP push-dial before removing the jug. Operation has stopped once the button surround has stopped flashing.

Appliance surfaces will be hot during and after operation.

Clean the milk jug and frothing disc immediately after use. Refer to Care & Cleaning.

NOTE
When frothing multiple batches, to prevent the Boil Dry Protection from activating, we recommend allowing the milk jug to cool for approximately 5 minutes, or filling the milk jug with water for faster cooling.

USING THE 'COLD STIR' SETTING

The 'Cold Stir' setting allows you to stir already cold or hot milk without additional heat.

Use it to froth milk for cold beverages such as an iced cappuccino; to blend in syrups and flavourings for an iced chocolate or mocha; or to stir in dissolvable instant drinking powders into milk or water.

NOTE
The milk frother has been designed specifically for the purpose of foaming milk and other dairy milk alternatives and is not intended to whip, thicken or heat other food substances eg. oil, eggs, butter, heavy whipping cream, soups, gravies etc. The milk frother is not designed to mix a large quantity of dry ingredients or melt large food pieces eg. cubed chocolate, ground nuts, whole spices, fresh herbs or ice cubes.

ADDING INGREDIENTS

Always allow the milk frother to start for a few seconds before using the measuring cap to gradually add ingredients.
Always add ingredients slowly and in small quantities.

SAFETY FEATURES

Boil Dry, Overheating Protection
The milk frother will automatically cease to operate if the milk jug overheats. This can be caused if the milk jug is empty, if liquid is below the MIN measurement marking, or after consecutive uses. If this occurs, 3 alerts will sound. Unplug the power cord from the power outlet, wait approximately 5 minutes for the milk frother to cool down or fill the milk jug with water for faster cooling.

Thermal Fuse & Current Protection
This feature protects the milk frother in case of major fault. If this occurs, the milk frother will automatically turn off and will not reactivate. Immediately cease use, remove the power plug from the power outlet and visit www.sageappliances.com or call Sage Consumer Service.

CARE & CLEANING FOR YOUR SAGE^® MILK CAFÉ^™

Both the milk jug and frothing disc should be cleaned immediately after each use to prevent build-up of milk residue.

Unplug the power cord from the power outlet before cleaning.
The milk jug and frothing disc will be hot immediately after use, so carefully remove the milk jug from the power base and fill with tap water. Once the milk jug and frothing disc have cooled completely, remove the frothing disc and rinse off any milk in warm water.
Wash the milk jug, jug lid, measuring cap and frothing disc in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The seal from the lid can be removed and washed separately.
Wipe the exterior of the power base with a soft damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.

NOTE
Do not use alkaline or abrasive cleaning agents, steel wool or scouring pads on any part of the milk frother as these can damage the appliance surfaces.

NOTE
Never immerse the power base in water or any other liquid. The outside of the milk jug must always be clean and dry before placing on the power base prior to use.

NOTE
The milk jug, jug lid, measuring cap and frothing discs can be washed in the dishwasher (top shelf only). However to extend the life of the frothing discs, we recommend these are washed by hand.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM	POSSIBLE CAUSE	WHAT TO DO
Milk is not foaming?	Milk is warm or too hot to foam.	Use cold, fresh (or freshly opened) milk. Do not re-foam already heated milk. Try reducing the quantity of milk in the milk jug. Try a different milk. Some milks and milk brands produce more froth than others. For example, we have found that some soy milks produce froth while others do not. Experiment with different milk options and frothing discs to achieve the desired result. Adding dense ingredients like thick syrups, heavy powders and large flakes can significantly reduce the amount of foam. This is normal.
Milk is not heating?		Ensure the milk jug is correctly positioned onto the power base. Ensure that the milk frother has been properly activated. Frothing has started once the milk frother beeps once and the button surround slowly flashes. If the milk frother does not do this, re-push the START / STOP push-dial once, firmly. Increase the temperature by turning the START / STOP push-dial to the right.
Frothing disc is not moving or is dislodged?	Frothing disc is not inserted correctly. Frothing disc has dislodged during operation. Ingredients have been added too quickly.	Stop operation. Remove liquid from milk jug. Ensure the frothing disc is securely and correctly attached. Refer to steps 2 & 3,. Once attached, turn the frothing disc with your fingers, it should turn freely. If it doesn't, contact Sage ® Consumer Service. Refill milk jug with liquid. Start frothing. Add ingredients (if desired) slowly and in small quantities after the milk has already started swirling.
3 beeps?	The milk frother may be overheated.	Unplug the cord from the power outlet. Remove liquid from milk jug. Rinse the milk jug and frothing disc with cold water then dry thoroughly. Ensure the milk frother has not been operated for 5 minutes. This allows the internal components to cool. Ensure the frothing disc is securely and correctly attached. Refer to steps 2 & 3. Once attached, turn the frothing disc with your fingers, it should turn freely. If it doesn't, contact Sage ® Consumer Service. Recommence frothing.
Humming noise?	This is normal. It is the cooling fan preventing the milk frother from overheating.	During this time, you may still use the milk frother unless the Boil Dry Overheat Protection as been activated (3 beeps will be heard). Follow the instructions above.
Burnt milk?	Milk is not swirling correctly. Milk jug has not been cleaned properly and milk residue from previous use is burning.	Ensure the frothing disc is securely and correctly attached. Refer to steps 2 & 3. Once attached, turn the frothing disc with your fingers, it should turn freely. If it doesn't, contact Sage ® Consumer Service. Ensure the milk jug is thoroughly cleaned after each use and between consecutive uses.
Ingredients are not melting?	Ingredients have been added before milk has warmed up. Ingredients are too large.	Always allow the milk frother to start for a few seconds before using the measuring cap to gradually add ingredients. Ensure ingredients are in small pieces.
Milk is too cold / too hot?		Adjust the temperature to suit your personal preference. Always fill the milk jug between the MIN and MAX level markings.
Grinding noise?	Frothing disc is not inserted correctly. Frothing disc has dislodged during operation. The milk jug has been removed from the power base during operation.	Ensure the frothing disc is securely and correctly attached. Refer to steps 2 & 3. Once attached, turn the frothing disc with your fingers, it should turn freely. If it doesn't, contact Sage ® Consumer Service. Removing the milk jug during operation can dislodge the frothing disc. Stop operation. Reinsert the frothing disc correctly before recommencing.
Emergency stop?		To stop operation at any time, press the centre of the START/ STOP push-dial. Operation has stopped once the button surround has stopped flashing.
