Timer and the On/Off button, Grinding Tips, Supplies

The Timer and the On/Off button.

•To start grinding, you need to push the on/off button. The machine will grind between 8 and 40 seconds.

•With the timer in the highest setting (12) grinding will stop after approx. 40 seconds, with the timer in the lowest setting (2), grinding will stop approx. after 8 seconds. Please note: You can always stop the grinding by pushing the on/off button again.

•Once you have determined the correct fineness of your coffee, set the timer to the position which will yield the amount you need for immediate use.

Grinding Tips

•Never grind in advance. Only grind the amount of coffee you will use for preparing coffee in the next hour. Ground coffee loses aroma and flavor very fast. Ground coffee also attracts other odors.

•Do not grind for more than one minute at a time. Let machine cool down for 5 minutes before grinding again.

•Empty the ground coffee container before it is completely full. Otherwise ground coffee can back up into the grinding chute (I) and block the grinding mechanism.

•Before removing the ground coffee container, tap the machine a few times. This will relieve some of the static build-up which occurs during grinding.

CLEANING

•Always unplug your coffee grinder before cleaning.

•Remove the ground coffee container, its lid, and the bean container lid and clean them in a warm water and mild liquid soap solution. Do not place these items in the dishwasher.

•Remove ground coffee from the grinder shoot (I) with the special cleaning brush included. To most effectively clean, turn the brush by its handle as you "snake" it into the grinder shoot. Repeat this process until the brush comes out without coffee residue.

•Empty the bean container. The clear part of the bean container can be wiped on the inside and outside with a damp cloth.

•The outside of the grinder can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.

CAUTION: Never immerse the grinder in water or any other liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive materials to clean the grinder.

Cleaning/Removing the Upper Burr Disk (B)

•Turn the fineness selector (D) to the number "1. "

•Turn the roof of the upper grinding burr clockwise until it becomes loose.

•Lift the upper burr out of the grinder and clean both burrs with the special brush. IMPORTANT: Do not unscrew the upper burr from its housing!

•Replace the upper burr into the grinder and turn it counterclockwise until the fineness selector points to the number "9." Then turn a bit more to tighten the upper disk.
