Setup / initial start-up
1) Clean the appliance as described in the
chapter “Cleaning and Care”.
2) Place the appliance on a suitable and level
surface.
3) Unwind the cable from around the cable
retainer 5 and guide it through the recess on
the edge of the housing.
4) Insert the plug into a mains power socket.
The appliance is now ready for use.
Grinding coffee beans for filter
coffee
1) Remove the lid 1 from the motor unit 4.
To do this, turn it anticlockwise until the q is
above the
symbol.
2) Fill with the required quantity of coffee beans.
NOTE
► Please do not fill the appliance with more
than 50 g of coffee beans. If you do, the
coffee beans will not be properly ground.
50g is equivalent to around 6 tablespoons
of coffee beans!
► You will require around 6–8 g of coffee
powder for one cup of coffee. Please observe
the instructions in the operating manual of your
coffee machine.
3) Replace the lid 1 slightly offset, so that the q
is above the position
. Close the lid 1 by
turning it clockwise into the position
so it
clicks into place.
NOTE
► The appliance will not function until the lid 1
is correctly closed.
4) Press and hold the On/Off switch 3 until
the coffee beans have been ground to your
requirements.
NOTE
► During grinding, if coffee powder starts col-
lecting on the edge of the appliance where it
is out of the reach of the blade 2, shake the
appliance gently so that coffee powder falls
back inside.
The coffee grinding grade is influenced by the
quantity of coffee beans added and the duration
of grinding.
The longer you grind the coffee, the finer the coffee
powder. Shorter grinding results in coarser coffee
powder.
Grinding grade Time in seconds
Coarse 15–20 s
Medium 20–30 s
Fine 30–35 s
The following is a rough guide.
NOTE
► Please note the information about the grinding
grade in the operating manual of your coffee
machine.
5) Release the On/Off switch 3 once the coffee
beans have been ground to your requirements
and wait until the blade 2 is at a standstill.
6) Remove the lid 1 and disconnect the mains
plug from the power supply.
You can now remove the coffee powder using a
spoon or similar.
Grinding espresso beans for
espresso
