What to do if...
• the espresso temperature is too low:
– Carry out the brewing procedure
without using espresso grounds, but
using the filter and filter holder, in
order to preheat the system.
– Preheat the cups.
– Decalcify the appliance.
• the flow speed decreases noticeably:
– Do not press the espresso grounds
too firmly into the filter.
– Do not grind the espresso grounds
too finely ("medium" fineness).
– Decalcify the appliance.
• the espresso is flowing out of the side
of the filter holder:
– Ensure that the filter holder has
been placed in the retainer correctly.
– Twist the filter holder a little more
firmly into the retainer.
– Clean any espresso grounds away
from the rim of the filter holder.
• no espresso is coming out:
– Ensure that the water tank has been
filled and is correctly in place.
– Ensure that the filter holder has
been placed in the retainer correctly.
– Ensure that the water/steam
selection switch (figure 1/B) is in the
position and the selector dial for
water, steam and hot water
(figure 1/G) has been turned right to
the position.
– Do not press the espresso grounds
too firmly into the filter.

• the crema is no longer being produced
as it should:
– Ensure that there are enough
espresso grounds in the filter.

– Press the espresso grounds lightly.
• too little milk froth is created when
steaming milk:
– Always use cool, fresh and low-fat
milk.

– the espresso grounds have been
ground too rough:
– Ensure that there are enough
espresso grounds in the filter.
• the coffee machine switches itself off
while operating:
The appliance pump is equipped with a
temperature fuse that protects it from
overheating. The temperature fuse
interrupts the machine's operation, if
the machine is operated for too long or
if the pump is run without water.
– Set the on / off switch to "off" and
remove the plug from the mains
socket.
– Leave the machine to cool for at
least 20 minutes. Fill up with water.
– Plug the appliance into the mains
again and switch it on. If the
appliance still does not work, please
contact our Customer Care
Department.
