SEVERIN KM3873 Mode D'emploi page 11

Adjustable grind settings:
∙ 1 for espresso machines
∙ 2-7 for automatic coffee makers
∙ 8-10 for brewing when no machine is
used
∙ Caution: To prevent beans from getting
caught in the grind mechanism and
causing possible jamming of the motor,
always set the grind level fi rst before
putting the beans into the container. If the
beans have already been put in, the grind
level should only be changed while the
motor is running.
∙ Turn the bean container until the arrow on
the container is aligned with the desired
setting.
Loading the coffee beans
∙ Remove the lid of the bean container.
∙ Load the beans inside and replace the lid.
∙ The maximum capacity of the bean
container is 150 g.
Selecting the right quantity
∙ Use the quantity selector knob to set
the amount of ground coffee desired.
Any amount from 2 to 10 cups can be
processed in a single cycle. However,
the quantity-per-cup information on
the selecting knob is approximate only.
Since different types of coffee as well as
miscellaneous factors such as the size of
the cups and your personal preference
may require a different setting, we
recommend that you try out whatever
suits your own personal taste.
∙ The maximum capacity of the collection
container is 100 g. Caution: Always
make sure you empty the collection
container in good time, as an over-full
container may cause a blockage inside
the appliance.
Grinding the beans
∙ Make sure that the collection container
lid is properly fi tted before attaching the
container itself to the main unit.
∙ Insert the plug into a suitable wall socket.
∙ Press the start button.
∙ The grinding process begins and stops
automatically once the selected amount
of ground coffee has been produced.
∙ The process can be stopped at any time
by pressing the start button again.
∙ Once grinding has fi nished, remove
the plug from the wall socket and wait
until the motor has come to a complete
standstill before removing and opening
the collection container.
∙ Note: To ensure optimum coffee fl avour,
only the required quantity of beans should
be ground immediately before brewing.
Any excess ground coffee should be
stored in a suitable air-tight container.
Cleaning and care
∙ Before cleaning the appliance, always
remove the plug from the wall socket
and wait until the motor has come to a
complete standstill.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do
not clean the housing or the power
cord with liquids or immerse them. The
housing may be wiped with a slightly
damp, lint-free cloth. Wipe thoroughly dry
afterwards.
∙ Do not use abrasives, harsh cleaning
solutions or hard brushes for cleaning.
∙ Take off the collection container and its
lid, and clean them with a mild detergent.
Ensure they are thoroughly dry before
being replaced on the grinder.
