that the ground coffee does not go above the "max." level of the ground coffee holder.

IMPORTANT!
For your appliance to run correctly, make certain that:
„ The lid to the coffee -bean hopper is correctly positioned.
„ The ground coffee holder and its lid are correctly placed in the body of the appliance.
„ It is best to store coffee-beans a dry, cool place. Beans should be kept in an opaque,
airtight container.
„ Grind the coffee just prior to brewing it.
Advice to select the level of fineness of your ground coffee
„ Use the fineness selector to adjust the grind according to the type of coffee maker.
„ Generally, the quicker the water goes through the ground coffee, the finer the ground
coffee should be.
A "medium" ground is thus suited to making filter coffee while a "very fine" ground is
needed to make an Espresso.
„ For the first use, we suggest that you use an intermediate position and then adjust the
setting to your taste. Once you have used the appliance a few times, you will find the ideal
grind setting to suit your taste and brew method.
„ Do not change the grind setting while the appliance is running.
Suggested Grind Settings:
GRIND
Fine
Medium/Fine
Medium
Medium/Coarse
Coarse
Advice to select the number of cups
„ Use the number of cups selector to program the quantity of ground coffee you want.
„ The more cups you select, the longer the appliance will run.
„ The mill grinds 1/4 oz. of coffee per cup selected.
