PRELIMINARY CHECKS

Controls after transport

After removing the packaging, make sure the pro- duct is complete and undamaged and that all ac- cessories are present.

Do not use the appliance if it is visibly damaged. Contact the technical service center.

Connecting the appliance

Important! Check that the power supply voltage corresponds to the value indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.

Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed and correctly installed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only. If the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance, have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qua- lified professional.

USING THE APPLIANCE

•Place the appliance on a flat surface.

•Unscrew the lid in a counter-clockwise di- rection and lift it off (fig. 1).

•Fill the container with the desired amount of coffee beans (fig. 2).

•Screw the lid in a clockwise direction, rota- ting it until it can't be turned anymore (fig. 3). A safety device will not allow operation if the lid is not inserted correctly.

•Pull out the length of cord required and plug into the socket (fig. 4).

•In select models (KG49), turn the cups num- ber selection ring (E) to the number of cups you wish to grind (fig. 5). The amount of cof- fee will change depending on individual taste, the type and roasting of the coffee beans and

the degree of grinding selected: never fill over	GB
the MAX level stamped on the coffee bean
container.
• Press the cover to start the coffee grinder
(fig. 6) and keep it pressed until the right
grinding level is obtained.
	FR
• In models with indicator lights showing the
degree of grinding (F) (coarse, medium,
fine), press the cover and then release it
when the indicator lights up relative to the re-
quired degree of grinding. Remember that
	ES
when the cover is released, even for a se-
cond, the appliance resets and starts grin-
ding again as if there were whole beans
inside.

TIPSIT

•Always keep the lid of the coffee bean con- tainer tightly closed to keep in all the flavor and aroma of the coffee beans.

•Only grind the amount of coffee required.

•Do not overfill the coffee bean container. As an indication, calculate a tablespoon of coffee beans per cup (e.g. 4 spoonfuls of cof- fee beans for 4 cups of coffee). The ideal amount depends on individual taste and will be discovered through the use of the ma- chine.

•For models with indicators lights showing the degree of grinding, remember that: COARSE grinding is ideal for percolators; MEDIUM is ideal for mocha coffeepots and drip coffee makers;

FINE is ideal for espresso coffee makers.

•To ensure that you always have the best qua- lity in terms of freshness, always clean the appliance after each use, especially if coffee is ground after grinding other products (e.g. spices). However it is inadvisable to grind oily beans (e.g. peanuts) or products that are too hard (e.g. rice).
