-
Before use, check the integrity of the appliance and power cable. DO NOT operate the appliance at all when the Motor unit is damaged. If the Motor unit is not damaged, but an accessory (Grinder Bowl Cover, Stainless Steel Grinder Bowl, Grinder Blade) is damaged, DO NOT operate the Motor unit in conjunction with that accessory. In case you are not sure, contact a qualified person. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer/service agent or a qualified technician to avoid a shock hazard.

HOW TO USE
The Grinder
(used for grinding dry and hard foodstuffs: coffee beans, nutmeg, herbs,
spices, seeds, almonds, dried fruit, etc.)
Tip: The Grinder Bowl can hold up to 50 g of coffee or spices. However,
if you only need a lesser amount, do not grind more than you need. Coffee
loses its distinct aroma, flavor and taste and spices often lose their
qualities soon after blending. Always store the powder in an airtight
container immediately.

- Place the Base of the Motor unit on a flat, dry, and heat-resistant surface.
- Measure out and place the food ingredients into the Stainless Steel Grinder Bowl. DO NOT fill the bowl more than ¾ of its capacity. For very hard foods, we recommend processing ¼ of its capacity to prevent overheating of the Motor.
- Attach the Grinder Bowl Cover to the Stainless Steel Grinder Bowl by pressing it downwards firmly.
- Plug the power cable into the wall socket and switch ON. Press and hold the HOLD Button and grind until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Place one hand on top of the Grinder Bowl Cover and push the Cover down throughout the grinding process. DO NOT operate the appliance for more than 20 seconds without interruption. Let the appliance rest for 2 minutes between processing cycles. After processing cycles, allow 15 minutes for the appliance to cool down before the next use, to prolong its service life. DO NOT allow the appliance to idle while in operation.
- On the completion of grinding, release the HOLD Button. Switch off the wall switch and unplug the power cable.
Wait for the Grinder Blade to stop turning and remove the Grinder Bowl Cover from the Stainless Steel Grinder Bowl and the contents may be poured out.
only if a Jam occurs: DO NOT continue grinding if the Grinder Blade is jammed.
Release the HOLD Button. Switch off the wall switch and unplug the power cable.
Wait for the Grinder Blade to stop turning and remove the Grinder Bowl Cover from the Stainless Steel Grinder Bowl. Clear the jam.
Once the Jam is cleared, re-attach the cover to the bowl by pressing it downwards firmly.
