SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT

Voltage: 100 VAC Frequency: 50-60 Hz Wattage: 170 Watts

NOTE: This Coffee Grinder has a polarized plug. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug will fit in an outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, contact a qualified

electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

A short power supply cord is supplied to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

If an extension cord is used:

•The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

•The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

COFFEE GRINDING TIPS

1.Grind only beans you will immediately use for freshest-tasting coffee.

2.Adjust amount of coffee beans and grinding time to suit your own personal taste. Shorter grinding times result in coarser grinds. Longer grinding times result in finer grinds, but can overheat the coffee grinds and valuable coffee flavours can be lost. (For optimum grinding results, do not pulse top cover.)

3.KitchenAid does not recommend using this grinder to grind beans for pump espresso-type machines.

4.The Suggested Grinding Chart shows recommended grinding times at various levels for automatic drip coffee makers and French press machines.

5.A scale is provided inside the bowl for the KitchenAid recommended amount of beans to grind for 4, 8, 10, and 12 cups of coffee. Fill the bowl to your desired cup size with 4 cups minimum or 12 cups maximum level. Various bean blends and bean sizes can cause differences in fill level and grind times.

Suggested Grinding Chart

For automatic drip coffee makers and French press machines*

Fill to	Max. amount	Suggested grinding time
12-Cup Fill Line	14 Tbsp.	Process for 21 seconds
10-Cup Fill Line	12 Tbsp.	Process for 19 seconds
8-Cup Fill Line	9 Tbsp.	Process for 17 seconds
4-Cup Fill Line	5 Tbsp.	Process for 14 seconds

*French press machines require a coarse grind. For optimum results, process beans continuously until desired grind size is achieved.

CARE AND CLEANING

1.Always unplug Coffee Grinder before cleaning.

2.Remove the bowl and top cover. Wash in hot, soapy water, rinse, and dry. Bowl and top cover can also be washed in the dishwasher (top rack only). After removing from the dishwasher, allow to cool before reassembling.

3.Wipe the motor housing clean with a damp, soft cloth.

NOTE: Do not use abrasive cleaners. Do not immerse the motor housing in water.

4.Wipe cord with warm, sudsy cloth; then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.

5.Reassemble your Coffee Grinder after cleaning.

Never use toxic products (ammonia, alcohol, removers, etc.) or metal sponges or brushes when cleaning the Blade Coffee Grinder. These products can damage

and leave unpleasant odours inside your appliance. Avoid contact between these products and the Blade Coffee Grinder, as they may damage the appliance.
