Unusual performance of the coffee machine
Problem
Only very little
coffee or nothing at
all is dispensed
from the coffee
spouts, although a
drink has been
selected.
Water stopped
flowing whilst
programming in the
amount to use.
The machine does
not rinse through
when switched on,
even though the
Automatic rinsing
function is switched
on.
There is a lot of
residual "coffee
water" in the waste
container.
Possible cause and remedy
The filters in the brew unit are blocked.
^ Clean the brew unit (see "Cleaning and care - Cleaning
the brew unit")
^ Degrease the brew unit (see "Cleaning and care -
Degreasing the brew unit")
The maximum amount possible was reached. Preparation
is halted and the maximum portion size possible will be
saved.
or
There is insufficient water in the water container. The
programming the amount process will be cancelled and
the portion sizes will not be saved.
^ Fill the water container with cold, fresh tap water and
replace it in the machine.
^ Repeat the procedure for programming the amount.
This is not a fault.
If the coffee machine still has an operating temperature
which is higher than 60 °C , then rinsing will not take place.
The coffee is too coarsely ground.
^ Set the grinder on a finer setting (see "Setting the coffee
grinder").
^ If necessary, adjust the amount of coffee (see "Amount of
coffee").
