1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
Repairs to electrical appliances must be carried
out only by specialised technicians! Improper
repairs can expose the user to considerable dan-
gers! If the machine is used other than for its
intended purpose or is operated or maintained
improperly, we cannot accept liability for any
resulting damage!

Use the coffee grinder only for grinding roasted,
untreated coffee beans, and not for grinding any other
type of foodstuffs! Always make sure that there are no
foreign objects mixed in with the coffee beans, which
voids the warranty.

1.2. General instructions for users
Set the machine on a dry, level and stable surface, and
use it only indoors. Never place this machine on a hot
surface, near other appliances which become very hot
when in use (e.g. stove, deep fryer), or near open flames.
Never fill the machine above the maximum mark (risk
of overheating!)
The mains supply voltage must always match the
working voltage of the machine. Please refer to the
type plate on the machine.
Do not operate the machine if the mains supply cable
or the casing is damaged.
Never allow the mains supply cable to come into con-

it is not pinched or rubbing against any sharp edges.
Never pour water into the machine.
Never immerse the machine in water.
Always keep the mains supply plug dry and keep it
away from moisture.
Do not pull on the mains supply cable to disconnect

the machine itself).
Before carrying out maintenance or cleaning, check
that the machine is switched off and that the mains
plug is disconnected.
After use, allow the machine to cool down sufficiently
before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning work.
Make sure that the cable does not hang down or get

Grind fineness setting
4. PREPARING GROUND COFFEE
4.1. Grind fineness settings
There are 16 highly precise settings (which are essentially continuous) for selecting the de-
gree of fineness of the grind. Each of the 4 main settings is subdivided into 4 fineness steps
– allowing selection ranging from extra-fine- to fine- to medium- to coarse-ground coffee.
Tastes and preferences vary, so we recommend trying out different settings according to
personal preference and the type of coffee bean roast. We can suggest the following as a
general guide and for reference:
Coarse
particularly suitable for making coffee pow-
der when the coffee is filtered manually
Medium
recommended if using ground
coffee in conventional stove-top
espresso machines
Fine
should be selected when using ground cof-
fee in filter coffee machines or in automatic
pump-pressure espresso machines.
Extra Fine
recommended for preparing
mocha or Turkish or Greek coffee
Dark oily beans should be ground 1 or 2 steps coarser than usual
The finer the grind setting selected, the longer the time required to grind a given quantity.
For example, in 20 seconds the machine grinds more coffee with the Coarse setting
than with the Fine setting.
If the coffee in the coffee machine is too thin or is running through too quickly, try a finer
grind setting. If espresso or coffee is taking too long to brew, try a coarser grind setting.

Preparing ground coffee8
NOTE
To stop the grinding process early, turn
the bean holder to the right through the
Coarse setting up to the end stop – the
grinding process will stop immediately,
while the timer continues until it reaches
0. This interruption of the grinding process
can be useful if the amount of coffee is
set too large or a foreign object in the
coffee is blocking the grinder.
Grind amount / grind-
ing time adjustment
4.2. Coffee grinding
Coffee can be ground only with the bean holder in place and a fineness setting selected
through the position of the bean holder. If the fineness selector is fully to the right, the coffee
grinder will not operate.
This machine has a time-controlled pre-set grind amount. The rotary control on the front of
the coffee grinder can be used to adjust the required duration of the grinding process and
therefore the grind amount.
Pour the desired type of coffee beans into the bean holder
Check that the ground coffee collecting container is in place and is empty
Turn the bean holder to the desired fineness setting
Select the desired grinding time (amount) using the rotary selector
The grinding process then starts immediately and automatically. It ends when the rotary
selector timer reaches the 0 position.
TIP
Never start the grinder without the collecting container in place
Do not remove the bean holder while beans are being poured in
We recommend: To enjoy maximum flavour, do not grind more beans than you will
use immediately
Before taking out the full collecting container, tap the machine gently a few times to
bring down any coffee powder that may have remained stuck inside >
Cleaning 9
5.
NOTE
Please note – If using dark, oily cof-
fee beans, the machine will need to be
cleaned more frequently than with light,
less oily beans.
The individual parts of this machine are
not suitable for washing in a dishwasher!
We recommend cleaning the grinder and
seal ring each time after grinding with the
finest grind setting.
5. CLEANING
Regular cleaning will ensure that you continue to enjoy your machine.
Before every cleaning, always pull out the mains supply plug!
Never pour water or other liquids into the machine!
With the bean holder removed, clean the grinding chamber from below as often as pos-
sible, using a brush, for example, to prevent caking of oily coffee residues to the extent
possible (to do this, grip the top part of the grinder at the rubber seal and take it off)
Clean the seals between the bean holder and the grinder, using a brush for example
Clean the outside of the machine using a wet cloth – check that all parts of the
machine have dried completely before the next use
The bean holder and ground coffee collecting container can be easily removed to allow
better cleaning
Never fill the collecting container above the maximum mark. Excess coffee powder
can be drawn back up into the grinder and cause overheating, which can damage
the machine!
Do not grind continuously for more than about 3 minutes, as this will cause all parts
to overheat, which can adversely affect the coffee flavour
