WHAt to do
Ensure the machine is plugged

Turn the Selector Control to the
right 'Espresso' position.
Fill water tank. Slide it carefully
back into position, ensuring it
aligns flush with the sides of the
machine.
Use a slightly coarser grind.
Lower dose of coffee.
Use a lighter tamp.
Use the pin on the end of the
provided cleaning tool to unblock
the hole(s). If the hole(s) remain
blocked, dissolve a cleaning tablet
in hot water and soak filter and
portafilter in solution for approx.
20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
