Electrical Connection

   Safety Switch

The appliance is equipped with a safety switch. It only works if the container for the coffee beans is mounted correctly. Switching the Appliance On / Off
NOTE: The appliance cannot be switched on until a powder volume setting has been selected.

• Press the button. The control lamp lights up continuously. The grinding process begins.
• The grinding process finishes automatically.
• You can also finish the grinding process with the button at any time.

Short-Term Operation
Only use the appliance in immediate succession for a maximum of 5 times.
Allow the appliance to cool down for about 10 minutes before using it again.
Setting the Degree of Grinding
The grinder is gradually adjustable from extra fine to coarse. Observe the symbols for setting the grinding degree. The small dots mean a fine setting and the big dots a coarse setting.
How fine or coarse you grind your coffee depends on the further use of the coffee powder. The type of coffee beans and the roasting process have an additional impact on the taste. With a little practice, you will find out which grind setting is right for you. We can give you the following indications:

NOTE: Avoid blockages of the grinder Set the grinding degree when the container for coffee beans is completely empty or only during the grinding process.
To change the grinding degree, slide the lever to the desired setting.
Regulator for Setting the Powder Quantity (Number of Cups)
Use the slider to set the amount of coffee that is to be ground. Make sure that there are always enough coffee beans in the container for coffee beans. Choose between
2 and 12 cups of coffee. The control lamp will flash.
The amount of coffee powder per cup depends on your personal taste, the type of coffee and the grinding grade setting.
NOTE: Tip for espresso Only grind the amount of coffee you are going to use immediately.
Remaining Coffee Beans Remove the coffee beans from the appliance if they are older than a week. They have lost their aroma and diminished the coffee taste.
TIP: Store coffee beans in a sealed, air-tight container in the refrigerator. That way, the coffee stays aromatic for longer.
