A fault occurs...
... if the brewing cycle takes longer than
normal, or
... if the valve of the water reservoir has
become leaky, or
... if the appliance has accidentally been
switched on without water in the reservoir
the water reservoir needs to be descaled (see
section Descaling).
If descaling does not help to solve the problem,
check whether the valve of the reservoir is
clogged (e. g. with coffee grounds or foreign
particles such as fibres). Only in this case should
the valve unit be removed for cleaning. To clean,
proceed as follows:
– Turn the complete valve unit anti-clockwise
and lift it out of the reservoir. Do not point
the valve unit at anyone as it is spring-
loaded, i.e. under tension.
– Clean the valve unit and the water outlet
opening thoroughly.
– After cleaning, re-insert the valve unit and
fasten it by turning clockwise.
... if hot water is ejected through the reservoir
lid, or
... if the valve does not open although the
boiling process is complete,
the water reservoir (3 ) has been overfilled.
When filling the reservoir, be careful to observe
the minimum/maximum water levels.
