Blade Coffee Grinder Safety
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your
appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.
ENGLISH
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to
reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are
not followed.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you
and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either
the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously
DANGER
WARNING
injured if you don’t immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured
if you don’t follow instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electric shock do not put Coffee Grinder in water or
other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and
before cleaning.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance
malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest
Authorized Service Facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
7. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by KitchenAid may cause fire,
electric shock, or injury.

Electrical Requirements
Volts: 120 V.A.C. only.
Hertz: 60 Hz
NOTE: This Coffee Grinder has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this
plug will fit in 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
modify the plug in any way.
A short power-supply cord is provided
to reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords are available and may
be used.
If a longer extension cord is used,
• The marked electrical rating of the
extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.
• The cord should be arranged so it
will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.

Blade Coffee Grinder Operating Instructions
Before First Use
WARNING
Cut Hazard
Handle blades carefully.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
1. Wash bowl and
top cover in hot,
soapy water. Rinse
and dry. Blade is
sharp. Handle the
blade carefully.
Bowl and top
cover can also be
washed in the
dishwasher (top
rack only).
Blade Coffee Grinder Use
1. Unplug Coffee Grinder.
2. Check that inside of top cover is free of
coffee grinds or residue.
3. Secure the bowl to the motor housing
by placing the bowl on top and
turning clockwise to lock in place.
4. Place whole coffee beans in the bowl
to be processed. Fill the bowl to no
more than the Maximum Fill line
marked on the inside of the bowl as
recommended by KitchenAid. Various
bean blends and bean sizes can cause
differences in fill levels/grind times.
Generic markings inside the bowl
will help you adjust the amount of
grounds to your liking.
5. Position Top Cover over bowl so that it
slides over the side guides on the motor
housing.
NOTE: Make sure both cover and bowl are
in position, otherwise the Coffee Grinder
will not operate.
6. Plug power cord into electrical outlet.
7. Press down Top
Cover to start
processing. (For
optimum grinding
results, do not pulse
top cover.) Continue
grinding until all the
beans are ground
to the consistency
you want, or follow
Suggested Grinding
Chart for automatic drip coffee makers
and french press machines (page 6).
NOTE: Do not operate the grinder for
longer than 25 seconds.
8. To stop processing, release pressure on
Top C o ver.
9. Unplug the
appliance.
10. Wait until the blade
has stopped rotating
and remove Top

12 . Pour out ground
coffee.
ENGLISH

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
ENGLISH
personal taste. Shorter grinding time
results in coarser grinds. Longer
grinding times result in finer grinds,
but can overheat the coffee grinds and
valuable coffee flavors can be lost. (For
optimum grinding results, do not pulse
top cover.)
3. To ensure superior coffee taste,
KitchenAid does not recommend the
use of this grinder for the grinding
of herbs and spices. Leftover residues
could remain inside the bowl, which
could interfere with the flavor of your
coffee. In addition, grinding certain
spices, such as nutmeg and whole
peppercorns, may result in minor
abrasions to the polycarbonate cover.
4. KitchenAid does not recommend using
this grinder to grind beans for pump
espresso type machines.
5. The Suggested Grinding Chart (right)
shows recommended grinding
times at various levels for automatic
drip coffee makers and french press
machines.

fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical
circuit the Coffee Grinder is connected
to and make sure the circuit is closed.

damp, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaners. Do not immerse the motor
housing in water.
4. Wipe cord with warm, sudsy cloth;
then wipe clean with damp cloth. Dry
