IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock, and/pr injury to persons including the following:

1. Read all instructions carefully before using the coffee-mill.
2 To protect against risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons, do not immerse cord, plug or

appliance in water or other liquids.

3. The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capacities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5. Do not remove the lid until the blade has stopped completely. After releasing the push button the
blade will come to a stop within 2 to 3 seconds.

6. Unplug from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Allow to cool down before putting on or taking off parts, before cleaning the appliance, and before
storing.

7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or
has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized
De’Longhi service center for examination, repair or adjustment.

8. To reduce the risk of injury do not drape cord over the counter top or table top where it can be pul­led on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

9. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces. A short power
cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer, detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter-top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

10. Do not use outdoors.

11. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

12. To disconnect, remove plug from wall outlet. Do not yank cord, instead grasp plug and pull to di­sconnect.

13. Do not use the appliance for othe than intended use. Never chop ice or use the coffee mill other than
as described in the instructions.

14. Check grinding chamber foor presence of foreign obects before using.

15. Blades are sharp. Handle them carefully.

16. Make certain the voltage of the appliance is in accordance with your domestic supply.

17. This appliance is for household use only. Any servicing other than cleaning and user maintenance
should be performed by the nearest authorized De’Longhi Service Center.
Do not immerse the appliance in water.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not dismantle the appliance. Repair should be done
by an authorized De’Longhi Service Center only.

18. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock
or injury.

19. Avoid contacting moving parts.

20. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to mo­dify the plug in any way.

DESCRIPTION OF THE
APPLIANCE

A. Cleaning brush
B. Coffee bean container’s cover
C. Coffee bean container
D. Cable winder
E. Cups number selection ring (KG49 only)
F. Indicator for degree of grinding (KG49 only)

PRELIMINARY CHECKS

Controls after transport

After removing the packaging, make sure the pro­duct is complete and undamaged and that all ac­cessories are present.
Do not use the appliance if it is visibly damaged.
Contact the technical service center.

Connecting the appliance

Important!

Check that the power supply
voltage corresponds to the value indicated on the
rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.

USING THE APPLIANCE

• Place the appliance on a flat surface.

• Unscrew the lid in a counter-clockwise di-

rection and lift it off (fig. 1).

• Fill the container with the desired amount of

coffee beans (fig. 2).

• Screw the lid in a clockwise direction, rota-

ting it until it can't be turned anymore (fig.

3). A safety device will not allow operation if
the lid is not inserted correctly.
Do not attempt operation without the cover
being in place.

• Pull out the length of cord required and plug

into the socket (fig. 4).

• In select models (KG49), turn the cups num-

ber selection ring (E) to the number of cups
you wish to grind (fig. 5). The amount of cof­fee will change depending on individual taste,
the type and roasting of the coffee beans and
the degree of grinding selected: never fill over
the MAX level stamped on the coffee bean
container.

• Press the cover to start the coffee mill (fig.

6) and keep it pressed until the right grinding

level is obtained.
Do not operate this appliance continuously
for more than 60 seconds. Allow appliance
to cool down for 10 minutes before using
again.

• In models with indicator lights showing the
degree of grinding (F) (coarse, medium,
fine), press the cover and then release it
when the indicator lights up relative to the re­quired degree of grinding. Remember that
when the cover is released, even for a se­cond, the appliance resets and starts grin­ding again as if there were whole beans
inside.

TIPS

• Always keep the lid of the coffee bean con­tainer tightly closed to keep in all the flavor
and aroma of the coffee beans.

• Only grind the amount of coffee required.

• Do not overfill the coffee bean container.
As an indication, calculate a tablespoon of
coffee beans per cup (e.g. 4 spoonfuls of cof­fee beans for 4 cups of coffee). The ideal
amount depends on individual taste and will
be discovered through the use of the ma­chine.

• For models with indicators lights showing
the degree of grinding, remember that:
COARSE grinding is ideal for percolators;
MEDIUM is ideal for mocha coffeepots and
drip coffee makers;
FINE is ideal for espresso coffee makers.

• To ensure that you always have the best qua­lity in terms of freshness, always clean the
appliance after each use, especially if coffee
is ground after grinding other products (e.g.
spices). However it is inadvisable to grind
oily beans (e.g. peanuts) or products that are
too hard (e.g. rice).
