Brewing takes a
long time.
It may be time to descale the appliance.
Several minerals can accumulate in the coffee maker’s circuitry. Regular
descaling of the machine is recommended. This may need to be done more
often depending on the hardness of your water. Formore information, please
consult the “Descaling” section.
CAUTION: do not take the appliance apart.

There is too much coffee. We recommend using one measuring spoon or one
tablespoon of ground coffee per cup.
The ground coffee is too ne (Please note that: ground coffee for espresso
won’t work in a drip coffee maker).
There is ground coffee lodged between the paper lter and the lter holder.
The paper lter is not opened properly or is not well placed.
Rinse the lter holder before inserting the paper lter so it will adhere to the
damp walls of the lter basket.
Be sure you have not inserted a paper lter at the same time as the
permanent lter.
There is more than one paper lter in the lter holder.
Make sure the lter basket is pushed down all the way.

The ground coffee is not right for your coffee maker.
The proportion of coffee and water is not sufcient. Adjust to suit your taste.

The timer is synchronized and depends on your electrical network. If there is
a time difference, we recommend that you program the time once a week to
be sure it is correct.

ground coffee

Use your vacuum cleaner to remove the pre-ground coffee from the coffee

Bring your coffee machine to the customer service.
