5. Operating Instructions

Grinding Coffee Beans:

1. Add Beans: Open the lid of the coffee bean hopper and pour in the desired amount of whole coffee beans. Do not exceed the 'MAX' fill line. Close the lid securely.
2. Select Grind Size: Rotate the grind size adjustment dial on the front of the unit to your desired setting. Finer settings are typically for espresso, medium for drip coffee, and coarse for French press.
3. Set Grinding Time/Quantity: Use the power/timer control dial on the upper right to select the desired grinding duration or number of cups. Refer to the markings around the dial for guidance.
4. Start Grinding: Press the illuminated button in the center of the power/timer control dial to start the grinding process. The grinder will operate until the selected time/quantity is reached or until you press the button again to stop it manually.
5. Collect Ground Coffee: Once grinding is complete, carefully remove the ground coffee container from the unit. The freshly ground coffee is now ready for brewing.

Important: Do not operate the grinder continuously for more than 60 seconds. Allow the appliance to cool down for at least 5 minutes between grinding cycles to prevent overheating.
