If the three adjustment positions do not precisely match your personal taste you can also grind your coffee by choosing any intermediate position.
If the appliance has been filled with coffee beans, the grinding control must only be operated when the motor is running.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
- The BODUM® coffee grinder is preset to position | (medium grinding). |
-Only adjust the grinding control while the motor is running.
-Always keep the lid (fig.1) of the bean container tightly shut in order to enjoy the full taste and aroma of your coffee beans. Never grind more coffee than you actually need.
QUANTITY CONTROL
The BODUM® coffee grinder is equipped with a time/quantity control (fig.7).
Use it to set the coffee grinder to the desired grinding time and quantity. The appliance switches off automatically once the preset time has elapsed. If you want to interrupt grinding before the preset time has elapsed, simply turn the rotary knob back to the left until the appliance switches off.
The quantity of ground coffee you need to make your coffee depends on the type of bean, the degree of grinding and your personal taste.
Warning: In order to prevent the motor from overheating, do not grind more than 2 complete units (2x12 cups) in succession. After wait 10 Min. to let the motor cool down befor restart.
After each grinded unit (12 cups), empty the coffee container. This prevents the motor overheating.
STONE SAFETY CUT-OUT FEATURE
Given the huge quantities of coffee that are packed every day, very small stones may accidentally find their way into even the finest coffee beans. The appliance is equipped with a stone safety cut-out - or ”friction clutch”- in order to prevent damage to the grinding gear. A stone in the grinding gear will cause a loud rattling noise. Switch the appliance off immediately, remove plug from wall outlet, open it as described in the section entitled "Maintenance" and remove the stone.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the grinding gear
Disconnect the mains plug from the socket outlet. Remove any remaining beans in the bean container (fig.15) and take the latter off by twisting it in an anti- clockwise direction as far as the release area stop (fig.16). Lift the bean hopper from the housing (fig.17). The grinding ring can then be lifted out of the machine.
A soft-bristle brush is ideal for cleaning the grinding gear. Reassemble the machine by performing the above operation in reverse order. Housing and transparent parts can be cleaned easily using a damp cloth.

INITIAL OPERATION
Place the appliance on a level surface. Unreel the required length of cord.
It is important to keep the cord short. Insert the cord into the power cord inlet provided so that it is clamped and insert the plug into the socket outlet. Pack the excess cord length in the cord-tidy (fig.10). Open the lid (fig.11) of the bean container, fill the bean container with the desired quantity of coffee beans (250g max.) (fig.12) and close the lid (fig.13). The appliance is then ready to operate.
SETTING THE GRINDING CONTROL
