• Device will not operate if parts are not assembled properly.

5.1 Before fi rst use

Clean the device, see “cleaning“.

5.2 Notes and grinding tips

• The taste and strength of coff ee are personal preferences. To get the taste you prefer, try changing the type of coff ee bean; amount of coff ee and the coarseness.
• Always grind the coff ee grounds freshly for the number of cups you want to make.
• Coff ee beans should be stored in a cool, dry, dark place but not in the refrigerator.
• Clean the grinding mechanism regularly. Coff ee ground residues can impair fl avour.
• Only use the device to grind coff ee beans. It is not suitable for grinding of very wet, oily or extremely hard ingredients. Do not use the device to grind strong spices as this can impair the fl avour of the coff ee grounds.
• The fl avour of coff ee-based drinks depends on the quality of the coff ee beans used.

5.3 Grinding coff ee

1. Pour the coff ee beans into the bean container and place its lid on top of it.
2. Either place the collection container under the coff ee ground outlet or attach the portafi l-ter holder to the base of the device.
3. To set the desired coarseness, turn the coarseness ring (5) to the right (= fi ne coff ee grounds) or the left (= coarser coff ee grounds).

Recommendation for coarseness

4. Plug the power socket into mains power.
5. Press any one of the three buttons to turn on the device.
6. Press the -button to set the desired number of cups. You can select 2-12 cups in 2-cup increments.
7. Alternatively, set the grinding time by pressing the -button until you reach the desired time. You can select a grinding time of 1-40 seconds. To set the seconds more quickly, keep the button pressed down.
8. To start the grinding process, press the -button.
9. The device will beep twice when the grinding process has fi nished.
10. If you want to stop the grinding process earlier, press the -button again.
11. You can now remove the collection container or the portafi lter.
12. Press the -button to turn off the device when you have fi nished using it.

Using the portafi lter holder:

• Move the portafi lter backwards and forwards to make sure that it is fi lled evenly.
• If necessary, stop the grinding process manually by pressing the -button.
• For exact portions, use a highly accurate weighing scale (1 g increments).

PLEASE NOTE

• The device will automatically switch to standby mode if it is not used for more than 1 minute.
• If you select coarse grinding and a long grinding time or a large number of cups, then the collection container will be too small. Place another container which is large enough under the coff ee ground outlet.

Collection container capacity:

Use the settings described above as a starting point or recommendation. After just a short time using the device you will have no problems choosing your preferred setting.

8. Disposal of the Old Device

Old electric and electronic devices frequently still contain valuable materials.
However, they also contain damaging substances, which were necessary for their functionality and safety. If these were put in the non-recyclable waste or were handled incorrectly, they could be detrimental to human health and the environment.
Therefore, do not put your old device into the non-recyclable waste under  any circumstances.

8.1 Disposal of the packaging

The packaging protects the device against damages during transit. The packaging materials are selected in accordance with environmentally compatible and recycling-related points of view and can therefore be recycled. Returning the packaging back to the material loop saves raw materials and reduces the quantities of accumulated waste. Take any packaging materials that are no longer required to “Green Dot” recycling collection points for disposal.
