5 COFFEE GRINDER

Warning! The grind adjustment knob must only
be turned when the coff ee grinder is working. Do
not pour ground coff ee into the coff ee bean hopper.
Do not insert any material other than coff ee
beans. The grinder contains moving parts that
may be dangerous. Therefore, do not insert fi ngers and/
or other objects. Turn off the power button and unplug
the machine from the socket before carrying out any
type of operation inside the coff ee bean hopper. Do not
pour coff ee beans into the bean hopper when the coff ee
grinder is working.
Remove the cover (11) from the coff ee bean hopper (12).
• Make sure the hopper is clean and pour in the fresh coff ee
beans. Then close the hopper with its cover (11).
The quality and fl avour of coff ee depend on the degree of grind,
as well as on the blend used.
The machine is equipped with a knob (13) to adjust the degree
of grind.
To vary the degree of grind turn the graduated knob when the
coff ee grinder is working (the digits indicate the degree). Each
appliance is pre-set on a medium grind degree.
Turning the knob to lower digits increases the grind degree,
turning the knob to higher digits decreases the grind degree.
It is not recommended to mix coff ee from diff er-
ent degrees of grind.
