When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following:
Make sure that your output voltage corresponds to the voltage stated on the rating label of the appliance.
If the appliance or its power cord has been damaged, it must be repaired or replaced by the manufacturer, a service technician, or a similarly qualified person, to prevent hazards.
Before cleaning the appliance, be sure that it has cooled completely and that it is unplugged from the outlet.
To protect yourself from electric shock, do not immerse the power cord, plug, or appliance in water or other liquids.
Misuse of this appliance may result in severe personal injury.
Always unplug the unit prior to assembly, after use, before cleaning, and in the event of any malfunction.
Always unplug the unit before opening the bean or collection container and before removing either from the housing.
This appliance is not intended for use by adults with a physical, sensory, or mental disability or by children. Such persons should be supervised or properly instructed by someone responsible for their safety.
Before each use, check the appliance, its power cord, and its attachments for any defects. If the appliance has been dropped or if excessive force has been used to pull the power cord or plug, then the appliance should not be used because even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.
The appliance and its cord must never be placed near or on top of hot surfaces such as radiators, ovens, gas burners, open flames, etc.

Keep the appliance and its power cord out of reach of children under 8 years of age.
When using electrical equipment, safety precautions must always be taken to prevent the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury in the event of misuse.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This appliance is designed for short-term operation only. It should not be operated continuously for more than 2 minutes. Turn off the appliance after 2 minutes of use and allow the motor to cool down for 10 minutes before turning it on again.

BEFORE FIRST USE
Before initial use of this appliance, the grinding mechanism, grinding ring, bean container, and collection container should be thoroughly cleaned. For cleaning instructions, see the “Cleaning and Care” section.

ADJUSTING THE GRIND LEVEL
The coarse/fine adjustment knob allows for setting the grind to your liking with 16 adjustable grind settings:
1-3: Extra Fine, ideal for espresso or Turkish coffee
4-7: Fine to Medium, ideal for coffee from automatic coffee makers
8-16: Medium Coarse to Extra Coarse, ideal for pour-over, French press, or cold brew coffee

NOTE: These are approximations meant for guidance. Appropriate settings may vary according to personal preferences.
To prevent beans from getting caught in the grinding mechanism and possibly jamming the motor, always set the ground level before putting the beans into the container. If the beans have already been put into the container, the ground level should only be changed while the motor is running.

LOADING THE COFFEE BEANS
To insert the bean container, line up the side plastic indents with the holes on the grinder. Then, twist the knob 90° clockwise to lock it shut.
With the lid of the bean container removed, load the desired amount of beans inside. Then, replace the lid. The maximum capacity of the bean container is 14 ounces (400 grams).

SELECTING THE GRIND TIME

Use the grind time selection knob to set the length of the grind. The length can be set between 1 and 50 seconds and corresponds with the amount of ground coffee produced. Any amount from 2 to 10 cups can be processed in a single cycle.
Since different types of coffee and other factors such as cup size and your personal preference may require different grind settings, we recommend that you try out whatever setting suits your personal taste.
The maximum capacity of the collection container is 8.5 ounces (240 grams).

CAUTION: Always make sure that you empty the collection container, because an overfull container may cause blockage.

GRINDING THE BEANS
NOTE: If making espresso and using a portafilter, follow the instructions in the next section, “Using a Portafilter”.
Ensure that the collection container lid is properly fitted before attaching the container itself to the main unit.
Plugin the appliance, and then press the on/off button.
The grinding process stops automatically when the selected amount of ground coffee has been produced. The process can be stopped at any time by pressing the on/off button again.
When grinding has finished, unplug the appliance and wait until the motor has come to a complete stop before removing and opening the collection container.
NOTE: To ensure optimum coffee flavor, only the required amount of beans should be ground immediately before brewing. Any excess ground coffee should be stored in an airtight container.

USING A PORTAFILTER
Pick the appropriate holder (large or small) for your portafilter. Position the portafilter holder under the grinding mechanism. Slide and lock it into place. Then, slide your portafilter into the holder.
Press the portafilter into the black button on the wall of the grinder to begin. Hold until satisfied with the amount of espresso, and then release.
NOTE: There is no need to press the on/off button on top of the unit when using a portafilter. The portafilter button starts the grind on its own.

CLEANING AND CARE

Before cleaning the appliance, always unplug it and wait until the motor has come to a complete stop.
To protect yourself from electric shock, do not clean the housing or the power cord with water or other liquids, and do not immerse them in water or other liquids.
Wipe the housing with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth and dry it thoroughly.
Do not use abrasives, harsh cleaning solutions, or hard brushes when cleaning this appliance.
Remove the collection container and its lid, and clean them with a mild detergent. Ensure they are thoroughly dry before putting them back on the grinder.
The bean container should only be removed after any remaining beans have been emptied. To remove the bean container, first, turn the knob 90° counterclockwise. After it clicks, lift up the container. Rinse the container and lid and dry thoroughly. When replacing the container, make sure it is aligned with the insert as described in the “Loading the Coffee Beans”. Then, turn the container clockwise to lock it.
The grinding mechanism can be opened for cleaning or in the event of a malfunction. Remove the container as described above and take out the grinding ring. Use a small, soft brush to clean the grinding mechanism and the ring. Use caution, as the grinding assembly and ring have sharp edges. When inserting the grinding ring, ensure that the teeth on the ring fit into the corresponding recesses on the mount for the grinding mechanism. With the ring inserted, you should be able to move it slightly but not turn it.
The wind-up power cord storage underneath the base helps limit the length of the power cord during use and makes it easy to store the appliance.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Ground coffee spills from the collection container. This is a normal occurrence, and the static charge is usually the cause.
The beans are not being ground, and the grinder makes a high-pitched squealing sound. Because of their particular shape, beans might get jammed inside the grind mechanism. Set the grind adjustment to position 1 and unplug the unit. Stir the beans with a spoon to free those that are caught in the mechanism.
The motor does not start or make abnormal noises as if running under a heavy load. The grinding mechanism is choked or blocked. Unplug the unit immediately and clean the mechanism as described in the “Cleaning and Care” section.
