Setup

Before first use, please follow these steps to set up your grinder:

1. Initial Charging: Fully charge the grinder using the provided USB-C cable. Connect the cable to the grinder's charging port and a suitable USB power adapter (adapter not included). The indicator light will show charging status. A full charge typically takes over 60 minutes and provides 3-6 months of use.
2. Filling the Grinder:
   • Twist the top stainless steel part counter-clockwise to detach it from the transparent spice container.
   • Fill the transparent container with your desired salt, pepper, or spices. The large capacity allows for ample storage.
   • Align the top part with the container and twist clockwise to secure it firmly.
3. Adjusting Coarseness: Turn the adjustment knob located at the bottom of the grinder to select your preferred grind size, from fine to coarse. Turn clockwise for finer grinds and counter-clockwise for coarser grinds.

Operating Instructions

The FORLIM Gravity Electric Grinder features a simple one-hand operated, gravity-activated mechanism:

1. Ensure the grinder is filled with your desired spice and fully charged.
2. Turn on the safety switch (if present, typically a small button or switch on the side).
3. Simply tilt the grinder to an angle of 45 degrees or more downwards. The grinding mechanism will automatically activate, and the built-in blue LED light will illuminate, indicating operation.
4. Once you have dispensed the desired amount of spice, return the grinder to an upright position (less than 0 degrees tilt) to stop the grinding.

Adjustable Coarseness

Your FORLIM grinder allows you to customize the coarseness of your grind to suit various culinary needs. This is achieved by adjusting the ceramic grinding mechanism at the bottom of the unit.

• To adjust, locate the knob at the very bottom of the grinder.
• Turn the knob clockwise for a finer grind, ideal for delicate dishes or baking.
• Turn the knob counter-clockwise for a coarser grind, perfect for steaks, salads, or when a more robust texture is desired.

Refilling

The FORLIM grinders feature an extra-large capacity spice chamber, reducing the frequency of refills. When refilling is necessary, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the grinder is in an upright position and not actively grinding.
2. Gently twist the top stainless steel section counter-clockwise to separate it from the transparent spice container.
3. Carefully pour your desired salt, pepper, or spices into the wide opening of the transparent container. Avoid overfilling.
4. Reattach the top section by aligning it and twisting clockwise until securely fastened.

Charging

Your FORLIM Electric Grinder is equipped with a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery for convenience and environmental friendliness. To charge:

• Locate the USB-C charging port on the side of the grinder body.
• Insert the provided USB-C cable into the grinder's port.
• Connect the other end of the USB-C cable to a standard USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, computer USB port, power bank).
• The indicator light will illuminate to show that charging is in progress.
• A full charge takes approximately 60 minutes and provides extended usage time (3-6 months depending on frequency of use).

Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your FORLIM grinder. Please follow these guidelines:

• Cleaning the Spice Chamber: The transparent spice chamber is detachable and washable. After emptying, it can be rinsed with water. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching and refilling.
• Cleaning the Grinder Body: The main grinder body, containing the electronics and motor, is NOT dishwasher safe and should NOT be submerged in water. Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Use the provided cleaning brush to remove any spice residue from the grinding mechanism.
• Storage: Store the grinders in a dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish or internal components.
