Caution:
To prevent beans from getting
caught in the grind mechanism and
causing possible jamming of the motor,
always set the grind level fi rst before
putting the beans into the container. If
the beans have already been put in, the
grind level should only be changed while
the motor is running.
–
Turn the bean container until the arrow
on the container is aligned with the
desired setting.
Loading the coff ee beans

Th e maximum capacity of the bean
container is 150 g.
Selecting the right quantity
–
Use the quantity selector knob to set the
amount of ground coff ee desired. Any
amount from 2 to 10 cups can be processed
in a single cycle. However, the quantity-
per-cup information on the selecting
knob is approximate only. Since diff erent
types of coff ee as well as miscellaneous
control
allows
for
factors such as the size of the cups and
your personal preference may require a
diff erent setting, we recommend that you
try out whatever suits your own personal
taste.
–
Th e maximum capacity of the collection
container is 100 g. Caution: Always make
sure you empty the collection container in
good time, as an over-full container may
cause a blockage inside the appliance.

lid is properly fi tted before attaching the
container itself to the main unit.

Th e process can be stopped at any time by
pressing the start button again.
–
Once grinding has fi nished, remove
the plug from the wall socket and wait
until the motor has come to a complete
standstill before removing and opening
the collection container.
Note: To ensure optimum coff ee fl avour,
only the required quantity of beans should
be ground immediately before brewing.
Any excess ground coff ee should be stored
in a suitable air-tight container.
