Safety devices
Your coffee grinder is equipped with a variety of
safety devices which protect the user and the
grinder from harm.
Microswitch in the hopper mountin
This microswitch makes sure that the grinder
does not start without a properly attached hop-
per.
Fuse
As a protection against external power surges
the grinder is fitted with a fuse. The fuse is ac-
cessible from the footplate.
Protection through software
This safety device ensures that in the case of
overload, blockage or running empty the grinder
automatically switches off.
Grind chamber protection
There can still be tiny stones and grit even in the
most select coffee varieties. For such foreign ob-
jects not causing any damage, the grinder is fit-
ted with a safety device that stops the grinder in
such cases.
The problem is dealt with in the following way:
1. Use the grind adjustment button cto set to
maximum fineness.
2. Start the grinder.
The grinder grinds itself free.
3. Start another grind and set the desired grind
adjustment again.
If the problem is not solved with this method,
please seek help from an authorized service
partner.

Cleaning the grinder’s surfaces and
housing
Danger of electric shock!
In combination with live parts water can
lead to electric shocks or short circuits.
– Make sure that no liquid gets into the grinder.
– Switch the grinder off and pull out the plug be-
fore cleaning.
Risk of damage
Incorrect cleaning can damage the sensi-
tive surfaces of the housing.
– If possible, use only clear water without any
cleaning agent. In the case of tenacious stains
you can use mild soapy water.
– Under no circumstances may strong cleaners,
spirits, thinners, gasolene or similar substanc-
es be used for cleaning.
1. Remove ground coffee with the brush sup-
plied.
2. Clean flat surfaces and the housing regularly
with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
Cleaning
Just as with your espresso or filter coffee ma-
chine, you should also clean your coffee grinder
(if possible every week). In particular the grinder
must be kept clean and free of deposits in order
to guarantee the accuracy of every shot.
Cleaning with GRINDZ
TM
grinder cleaner
1. Empty the hopper completely.
2. Grind all coffee beans that are still in the
grinder into the port-a-filter/ grounds bin.
3. Use button cto set the coarsest level of
fineness.
4. Put the contents of a sachet or a cap full of
GRINDZTM grinder cleaner (35 - 40 g) into the
hopper.
5. Grind the entire quantity of the grinder
cleaner (2 - 3 double shots).
6. Clean the hopper and refill it with coffee
beans.
7. Grind 2 - 3 double shots of coffee beans.
Set the level of fineness back to the desired
adjustment.
With this, all remnants of the cleaning agent
are removed and cleaning is complete.
Hint:
When GRINDZTM grinder cleaner is ground the
production of dust is normal and of no signifi-
cance. Remove dust particles with a soft cloth.

Cleaning the hopper
1. Empty the hopper before you remove it. Oth-
erwise coffee beans fall out at the bottom.
2. Turn the hopper slightly anticlockwise and
remove it.
3. Clean the hopper daily both internally and
externally with a moist cloth. Coffee remains
can negatively affect the taste.
Risk of damage
Do not put either the hopper or the resi-
due tray into a dishwasher. Otherwise the
color of the synthetic material could change or it
could bleach white.
Disposal of the grinder
Old appliances must not be placed
in household garbage!
Once an appliance can no longer be
used every consumer is required by
law to dispose of old appliances sepa-
rately from household garbage, for example at a
council/regional collection depot. In this way it is
guaranteed that old appliances are disposed of
appropriately and that negative effects on the en-
vironment are avoided.
For this reason, electrical appliances are marked
with the symbol shown.
