Problem
The CALC light flashes.
The CALC light does
not go out after
descaling.
The light ring around
the on/off button
continues to flash
rapidly.
Water leaks from the
coffee machine.
Solution
You have pressed the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button at the same time.
This started the descaling cycle. If you did not intend to start the descaling
cycle, simply press the on/off button to switch off the machine. If you did
intend to start the descaling cycle, do not interrupt this cycle but let the
appliance operate until the water reservoir is empty.
The CALC light does not go out if the descaling procedure has not been
performed correctly. To perform the descaling procedure correctly:
Make sure you start the descaling cycle by pressing the 1-cup button and
the 2-cup button at the same time. See chapter 'Descaling' for a complete
description of the descaling procedure.
Make sure you do not interrupt the descaling cycle. During the descaling
cycle, hot water comes out of the coffee spout at intervals and the machine
stops descaling 3 to 4 times to let the descaling mixture act and to heat up
again. If you press the on/off button to interrupt this cycle, the CALC light
stays description of the descaling procedure.
Make sure you use four full water reservoirs to complete the descaling
procedure: two reservoirs filled with descaling mixture and two reservoirs
filled with fresh water. You start the two descaling cycles and the two flushing
cycles by pressing the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button at the same time. If
you do not complete the descaling procedure, scale residues remain behind
in the machine. This causes scale to build up more quickly and may cause
permanent and irreparable damage to the machine.
Do not switch the machine off during the descale process. If you switch off
the machine, you have to restart the whole descaling procedure.
Make sure that:
the water reservoir is placed properly;
there is enough water in the water reservoir (i.e. above the q MIN level if
you want to brew 1 cup);
the ambient temperature is not lower than 10°C. If it is, the machine does
not function properly.
Make sure that:
the water reservoir has not been filled beyond the MAX level;
the sieve in the centre of the pod holder is not clogged. If it is, unclog the
sieve by holding the pod holder under a running tap;
the coffee pod has been put properly in the centre of the pod holder;
the sealing ring has not got stuck under the edge of the water distribution
disc (see figure 1 at the beginning of this user manual).
