Warning
Solution
icon
The lights in the drink icons light up and go out one by one.
The machine is heating up and/or trying to release the air that was drawn into the
machine. Wait until all drink lights light up continuously.
The lights of all warning icons are flashing.
Reset the machine by unplugging it and plugging it back in. Before switching the machine
back on, follow these steps:
-
Remove the AquaClean water filter from the water tank.
-
Place back the water tank. Push it into the machine as far as possible to make sure it is
in the right position.
-
Open the lid of the pre-ground coffee compartment and check if this is clogged with
coffee powder. To clean it, insert a spoon handle into the pre-ground coffee
compartment and move the handle up and down until the clogged ground coffee
falls down (Fig. 30). Remove the brew group and remove all ground coffee that has
fallen down. Place back the clean brew group.
-
Switch the machine back on.
If the problem is solved the AquaClean filter was not prepared well. Prepare the
AquaClean filter before placing it back by following steps 1 and 2 in chapter 'Activating
the AquaClean water filter (5 min).
If the lights continue to flash, the machine could be overheated. Switch the machine off,
wait 30 minutes and switch it on again. If the lights are still flashing, contact the
Consumer Care Center in your country. For contact details, see the international warranty
leaflet.

Problem
The drip tray fills up
quickly.
The 'empty coffee
grounds container' light
remains on.
The machine prompts to
empty the coffee grounds
container even though
the container is not full.
Cause
This is normal. The machine uses
water to rinse the internal circuit
and brew group. Some water
flows through the internal system
directly into the drip tray.
You emptied the coffee grounds
container while the machine was
switched off.
The machine did not reset the
counter the last time you emptied
the coffee grounds container.
Solution
Empty the drip tray daily or as soon as the
red 'drip tray full' indicator pops up
through the drip tray cover. Tip: place a
cup under the dispensing spout to collect
rinsing water that comes out of it.
Always empty the coffee grounds
container while the machine is switched
on. Remove the coffee grounds container,
wait at least 5 sec. and then insert it again.
Always wait approx. 5 seconds when you
place back the coffee grounds container.
In this way the coffee grounds counter will
be reset to zero.
