Problem
The brewing unit cannot be
placed back.
The machine grinds the
coffee beans but no coffee
comes out.
The coffee is too weak.
Water ends up in the drip
tray.
The machine seems to be
leaking.
There is not enough coffee
in my cup.
Solution
Make sure that the lever is in contact with the base of the brewing
unit. Also make sure that the hook of the brewing unit is in the correct
position. See chapter 'Cleaning and maintenance', section 'Cleaning the
brewing unit'.
If you still cannot place the brewing unit back.Reinsert the coffee grounds
container and leave the brewing unit out. Close the maintenance door,
turn on the machine. The machine prepares for use. Turn off the machine
and try to place back the brewing unit again.
Clean the coffee exit duct and set the grinder to a coarser setting.
Clean the brewing unit (see chapter 'Cleaning and maintenance',
section 'Cleaning the brewing unit').
Fill the water tank with water.
Clean the coffee spout.
Adjust the ceramic coffee grinder to a finer setting (see chapter
'Using the machine', section 'Adjusting the grinding degree').
Brew a few cups of coffee to let the machine adjust itself to the new
grinding settings.
Use a different type of coffee beans.
This is normal. To guarantee the perfect cup of coffee, the machine uses
water to rinse the internal circuit and brewing unit. Some of the water
flows through the internal system directly into the drip tray. Empty the
drip tray regularly.
The drip tray is full and overflowed during brewing or the descaling
procedure.
Check if the water tank is leaking.
The brewing unit or the drains behind or under the brewing unit may be
blocked. Rinse the brewing unit with lukewarm water and clean the upper
filter carefully. Also clean the inside of the machine with a soft, damp cloth.
Air may be present in the internal circuit. Rinse the internal circuit of the
machine by turning the control dial to the hot water icon and letting
some hot water flow out of the machine.
Clean the brewing unit (see chapter 'Cleaning and maintenance',
section 'Cleaning the brewing unit').
