IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Before use, please read and follow these safety warnings carefully and use the
grinder properly. These safety warnings are indicated for the safe and proper
use of this product to prevent danger to the user or others and damage to
property. When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
GENERAL
• Read all instructions.
• After unpacking the grinder, dispose carefully of the plastic bags and other
packaging so that children and others cannot reach them.
• Remove and recycle or discard all stickers, descriptive labels, cable ties,
and packing materials, including static stickers and hang tags with ties.
• Never place fingers into the grind chamber while product is plugged in.
• Do not place any utensils in the grinder or grind chute.
• Do not tamper with the finger guard covering the chute.
• This product contains neodymium magnets, one inside the base and one inside
the catch. Always keep a safe distance (at least 3.9 in / 10 cm) between magnets
and all objects that can be damaged by magnetism.
• Do not use the magnetic catch on top of an electronic scale. The magnetic catch
may interfere with the accuracy of or even damage an electronic scale.
ELECTRICAL
• To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or any other
part of the grinder in water or other liquid.
• The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause
fire, electric shock, or injury.
• Use only with AC current and the correct voltage. Ensure that your main supply
voltage is the same as that marked on the underside of your grinder. To avoid
an electrical overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the
same circuit.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fully fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an appropriate
extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must
be equal to or greater than the rating of this appliance.
• Take care to arrange cords to not drape over the countertop or tabletop where
they can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
• Do not operate the grinder with a damaged cord or plug or if the grinder malfunctions,
or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the damaged appliance to the
nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
• To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use any high wattage appliance on
the same circuit with this appliance.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove bottom cover from base,
or disassemble base of the grinder in any way. There are no user-serviceable
parts inside. Opening the base of the grinder will void the warranty. Repair should
be done by authorized service personnel only.
USAGE
• This appliance is intended for household use only. Use for anything other than
the intended use will void the warranty.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.
• Before first use, wipe body of the grinder with a soft, damp cloth. Wipe down
magnetically aligned catch and catch lid and dry thoroughly.
• Do not place where the grinder could touch any other source of heat. For example,
on or near a hot gas burner or electric burner, in a heated oven, or in a microwave.
• Grinder must be operated on a dry, flat surface away from the edge of the
counter to prevent accidental tipping. Vibration during operation may cause the
grinder to move.
IMPORTANT
• For best performance, operate this appliance for less than 120 seconds per
grind cycle with a minimum of 90 seconds rest time maintained between two
continuous cycles.
• This grinder cannot be operated for more than a total of 6 minutes within any
10 minute time window. If the working time exceeds 6 minutes, in order to
prevent overheating, the grinder is programmed to automatically shut off for
a rest period of 30 minutes.
