To fill in pepper or salt:

numbering when you turn the pages of the I/B. Don’t change
the page numbering. Keep the language integrity. Print only

what is inside the frame.

• Locate the S and P mark on each container. They indicate which mill
is intended for which content (S is for Salt, and P is for Pepper).

• Simply lift off the stainless steel lid (6) of each container (5) and fill
them with coarse sea salt, peppercorns of other spices suitable to be
ground.

• Put the lid back in place to keep the content fresh and dry, until
ready to grind.

• Do not fill the containers completely, for best performance.

• Using a dry cloth, clean the electric contacts on the top of the

containers and at the bottom of the motor block, for best
performance.

Note: avoid filling the containers with berries type peppercorns like pink
or Sichuan pepper, or wet sea salt, flower of salt, etc. as they have a
tendency to clog the mill.

CHARGING

• Remove the grinder and components from the packaging.

• Plug the charger cord into the charging base socket (3), and plug

the adapter supplied into the wall socket.

• With the socket for the adapter (3) at the right back side, and the
grind switch (8) on the motor block (7) positioned towards the front,
place the motor block in the center hole in the base (1), align the
arrow on the motor block with the marker and turn the motor block
counter-clockwise, until it locks in place and a red pilot light (2) on
the base lights up.

• Charging will take approx. 15 hours for the first time.

Please note: the adapter may become slightly hot when charging is
completed. This is normal.

Note: the motor block (7) can only charge if no spice container (5) is
attached to it.

SPICE CONTAINERS

• Before seasoning your meals, you can adjust the fineness of the
ground salt / peppercorns or spices, by turning the adjustment collar
(4) on the base of each container.

• To do so, turn the collar clockwise for a coarser grind and
counterclockwise for a finer grind.

• The coarseness adjustment can be done through 5 positions, each
marked with a distinct click sound. You can also select intermediate
grinding positions in addition to the marked positions.

• Do not force the collar beyond the normal “Stop” setting.

Note: you can also use the spice containers to grind, manually, without
the motor block. Just keep the lid on and turn the lid clockwise to grind
(in this case the LED light will not light up)

ATTACHING THE SPICE CONTAINERS

• Remove the motor block from the charging base by turning it
clockwise and lifting it.

• Remove the lid of the container that you want to use.

• Align the arrow on the motor block with the “Unlock” symbol on the

container.

• Lock in place by turning the motor block counter clockwise, until the
arrow reaches the “Lock” symbol.

• Grind the desired quantity of spice.

• Proceed reversely to remove the spice container in place.

USE

• With a spice container (5) attached to the motor block (7), hold the
appliance above the meal to season.

• Press on the grind switch (8).

• A LED light underneath each mill enables you to see how much you

are grinding, for a more precise seasoning.

• Interchange the spice containers at will, season to taste.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

• Unplug the adapter before any routine maintenance or cleaning.

• Disassemble the different parts of the appliance (motor block,

containers and lids) and clean them separately with a damp cloth.

• Do not immerse the motor block or base in water or any liquid or put
it in a dishwasher.

• Do not use with wet hands.

• Do not use cleaning products or detergents.

• Only use with the adapter supplied or of the same type (Input: AC

110V 60Hz, Output: DC 9V 300mA)

TROUBLESHOOTING

• If the mill does not grind, or if no motor noise can be heard, please
check that the batteries are not discharged. Recharge if necessary.

• If batteries cannot be recharged, replace by new rechargeable
batteries (see: BEFORE USE).

• If the light is faulty, please clean the electrical contacts on the spice
container and under the motor block.

• If the mill gets stuck during use (motor produces hum, but internal
shaft does not turn and no pepper is ground], check the container is
properly installed, then gently shake the mill or tap the mill gently on
a hard surface, to remove the stuck pepper or salt.

• To remove deeply stuck peppercorn, remove the upper lid as if for
re-filling the mill, turn the coarseness setting to its coarsest, and tap
lightly on a hard surface until all the peppercorn is released. Re­adjust coarseness setting to the desired level once done and
replace upper lid.

Note: too fine of a grind setting may not enable salt or pepper to be
ground. If the case, set the grinder to a coarser setting (see above).

PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

waste electrical and electronic equipment should be disposed of in
accordance with specific rules with the implication of both suppliers
