Problem
Cause
Solution
The machine does not
switch on.
The machine is not connected.
Check that the power cord has been inserted
correctly.
The on / off button was not
pressed and held down long
enough.
Keep the on / off key pressed for a few
seconds.
The drip tray fills up
quickly.
It is a normal phenomenon. The
machine uses water to rinse the
internal circuit and the brew group.
Part of the water flows through the
internal system directly into the
drip tray.
Empty the drip tray when the red mark appears
through the grid.
We recommend your placing a cup under the
dispensing spout to collect rinse water
The display
continuously shows the
“coffee pucks container
full” icon.
The coffee pucks container has
been emptied when the machine
was off.
Always empty the coffee pucks container when
the machine is on. If you empty the coffee
pucks container when the machine is off, the
coffee cycle counter does not reset. In this
case, the display shows the icon even if the
container is not full.
The coffee pucks container has
been placed back too quickly.
Always wait about 5 seconds when you replace
the coffee pucks container. This way, the
counter will reset to zero.
The machine requests
to empty the coffee
pucks container even if
it is not full.
The machine has not reset the
counter last time the coffee pucks
container has been emptied.
Always wait about 5 seconds when you replace
the coffee pucks container. This way, the
coffee grounds counter will reset to zero.
Always empty the coffee pucks container when
the machine is on. If you empty the coffee
pucks container when the machine is off, the
coffee cycle counter does not reset.
The coffee pucks
container is too full
and the "coffee pucks
container full" icon, did
not display.
The drip tray has been removed
without emptying the coffee
pucks container.
When you remove the drip tray, also
empty the coffee pucks container
even if it contains only a few coffee
pucks. In this way the coffee grounds
counter will be reset to zero, re-starting
to correctly count the coffee pucks.
Impossible to remove
the brew group.
The brew group is not in the correct
position.
Close the service door. Switch the machine off
and then back on. Wait for the display to show
the ready message, then remove the brew
group.
