Problem
I cannot insert the brew
group.
The coffee is watery.
The coffee is not hot
enough.
Coffee does not come
out or coffee comes out
slowly.
Cause
The brew group is not in the
correct position.
The brew group is dirty or needs
to be lubricated.
The machine is performing its
self-adjustment procedure. This
procedure is started
automatically when you use the
machine for the first time, when
you change to another type of
coffee beans or after a long
period of non-use.
The grinder is set to a too
coarse setting.
The temperature is set too low.
A cold cup reduces the
temperature of the drink.
Adding milk reduces the
temperature of the drink.
The AquaClean water filter was
not prepared properly for
installation.
Solution
Reset the machine in the following way:
close the service door and place back
the water tank. Leave the brew group
out. Switch the machine off and unplug
it. Wait for 30 sec. and then plug the
machine back in and switch it on. Then
put the brew group in the correct
position and reinsert it into in the
machine. See chapter 'Removing and
inserting the brew group' for step by
step instructions.
Remove the brew group (see 'Removing
the brew group from the machine'),
rinse it under the tap and leave it to dry.
Then lubricate the moving parts (see
'Lubricating the brew group').
Brew 5 cups of coffee initially to allow
the machine to complete its self-
adjustment procedure.
Set the grinder to a finer (lower) setting.
Brew 2 to 3 drinks to be able to before
taste the full difference.
Set the temperature to the maximum
(see 'Adjusting the coffee temperature').
Preheat the cups by rinsing them with
hot water.
Regardless of whether you add hot or
cold milk, adding milk always reduces
the temperature of the coffee. Preheat
the cups by rinsing them with hot water.
Remove the AquaClean water filter and
try to brew a coffee again. If this works,
make sure that you have prepared the
AquaClean water filter properly before
you place it back. See chapter
'AquaClean water filter' for step-by-step
instructions.
After a long period of non-use, you
need to prepare the AquaClean water
filter for use again and then place it
back. See step 1 - 3 of chapter
'Activating the AquaClean water filter'.
