Frequently Asked Questions - CBM310BD BLACK & DECKER

Why won't my grinder start?

Make sure the bean hopper lid and grounds bin are properly locked. The grinder will not operate if these parts are not securely in place for safety. Also ensure the appliance is plugged into a working outlet.

How do I choose the right grind for my coffee maker?

Use the selection dial: fine grind for espresso, medium for drip coffee maker, coarse for percolator or plunger. The faster the brewing, the finer the grind should be.

Can I grind other beans besides coffee?

No, this grinder is designed only for coffee. Grinding other foods can leave taste residues and damage the burrs. For spices or nuts, use another appliance.

How do I clean the grinder?

Unplug it. Remove the burrs (turn clockwise) and hand wash removable parts with warm soapy water (lids and bins are dishwasher safe on top rack). Wipe the housing with a damp cloth. Never immerse the appliance.

What if the coffee tastes rancid?

Clean the grinder immediately after each use to prevent bean oils from going rancid. Remove any coffee residue and wash the parts.

The grind selection dial does not turn properly

Remove and clean the burrs. Make sure they are properly reinstalled by turning counterclockwise. Debris may be blocking the mechanism.

Can I use an extension cord?

Yes, but use a grounded extension cord with three prongs rated at least as high as the appliance's power rating. Position it to avoid tripping hazards.

What is the maximum bean capacity?

Do not fill the hopper beyond the MAX line (about 12 cups of beans). Overfilling can jam the grinder or cause overflow.

How do I register my product?

Go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your grinder. This will facilitate any warranty claims.

What if ground coffee escapes from the bin?

Make sure the grounds bin lid is properly in place. Also ensure you are not overfilling the bean hopper (do not exceed the MAX line).

POLARIZED PLUG (120V models only)

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
3. If a long detachable extension cord is used:
   a) The marked electrical rating of the power cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
   b) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
   c) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Note: If the power cord is damaged, please contact the warranty department listed in these instructions.

GRINDING GUIDELINES

Selecting Grind Setting:

The proper grind is important for the best coffee flavor. The quicker the brewing process, the finer the grind used. Coffee that is ground too fine for a particular brewing process will result in bitter tasting coffee. Coffee that is ground too coarse will result in weak, watery coffee.

BREW METHOD GRIND APPEARANCE
Percolator or French Press	Coarse Like Kosher salt
Drip or Vacuum	Medium Like coarse-ground pepper
Espresso	Fine Like fine bread crumbs
