Blade Coffee Grinder Safety

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,

including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. To protect against risk of electric shock do not put Coffee Grinder in water or

other liquid.

3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and

before cleaning.

5. Avoid contact with moving parts.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance

malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest

Authorized Service Facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

7. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by KitchenAid may cause fire,

electric shock, or injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

10. Check hopper for presence of foreign objects before using.

11. This product is designed for household use only.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your

appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you

and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either

the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously

injured if you don’t immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured

if you don’t follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to

reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are

not followed.

Electrical Requirements

Volts: 120 V.A.C. only.

Hertz: 60 Hz

NOTE: This Coffee Grinder has a polarized

plug (one blade is wider than the other).

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this

plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one

way. If the plug does not fit fully 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 resulting from becoming

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension cords are available and may

be used.

If a longer extension cord is used,

• The marked electrical rating of the

extension cord should be at least as

great as the electrical rating of the

appliance.

• The cord should be arranged so it

will not drape over the countertop or

tabletop where it can be pulled on by

children or tripped over unintentionally.

Blade Coffee Grinder Operating Instructions

Before First Use

1. Wash bowl and

top cover in hot,

soapy water. Rinse

and dry. Blade is

sharp. Handle the

blade carefully.

Bowl and top

cover can also be

washed in the

dishwasher (top

rack only).

Blade Coffee Grinder Use

1. Unplug Coffee Grinder.

2. Check that inside of top cover is free of

coffee grinds or residue.

3. Secure the bowl to the motor housing

by placing the bowl on top and

turning clockwise to lock in place.

4. Place whole coffee beans in the bowl

to be processed. Fill the bowl to no

more than the Maximum Fill line

marked on the inside of the bowl as

recommended by KitchenAid. Various

bean blends and bean sizes can cause

differences in fill levels/grind times.

Generic markings inside the bowl

will help you adjust the amount of

grounds to your liking.

5. Position Top Cover over bowl so that it

slides over the side guides on the motor

housing.

NOTE: Make sure both cover and bowl are

in position, otherwise the Coffee Grinder

will not operate.

6. Plug power cord into electrical outlet.

7. Press down Top

Cover to start

processing. (For

optimum grinding

results, do not pulse

top cover.) Continue

grinding until all the

beans are ground

to the consistency

you want, or follow

Suggested Grinding

Chart for automatic drip coffee makers

and french press machines (page 6).

NOTE: Do not operate the grinder for

longer than 25 seconds.

8. To stop processing, release pressure on

Top Cover.

9. Unplug the

appliance.

10. Wait until the blade

has stopped rotating

and remove Top

Cover.

11.Unlock bowl

by turning it

counterclockwise.

Remove bowl from

the motor housing.

12. Pour out ground

coffee.

WARNING

Cut Hazard

Handle blades carefully.

Failure to do so can result in cuts.

ENGLISH

1. Grind only beans you will immediately

use for freshest tasting coffee.

2. Adjust amount of coffee beans

and grinding time to suit your own

personal taste. Shorter grinding time

results in coarser grinds. Longer

grinding times result in finer grinds,

but can overheat the coffee grinds and

valuable coffee flavors can be lost. (For

optimum grinding results, do not pulse

top cover.)

3. To ensure superior coffee taste,

KitchenAid does not recommend the

use of this grinder for the grinding

of herbs and spices. Leftover residues

could remain inside the bowl, which

could interfere with the flavor of your

coffee. In addition, grinding certain

spices, such as nutmeg and whole

peppercorns, may result in minor

abrasions to the polycarbonate cover.

4. KitchenAid does not recommend using

this grinder to grind beans for pump

espresso type machines.

5. The Suggested Grinding Chart (right)

shows recommended grinding

times at various levels for automatic

drip coffee makers and french press

machines.

Troubleshooting

Grinder still does not work, check the

fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical

circuit the Coffee Grinder is connected

to and make sure the circuit is closed.
