Care and Maintenance

Daily Cleaning

• Always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool before cleaning.

Descaling

Regular descaling is essential to maintain optimal performance and extend the life of your coffee maker. The frequency depends on water hardness and usage.

• When the Clean indicator illuminates, it is time to descale the appliance.

• Press the Clean button to start the descaling cycle.
• After the cycle, run several cycles with fresh water to rinse the system thoroughly.

Troubleshooting

• Coffee not brewing: Check if the appliance is plugged in, the water reservoir is filled, and the carafe is correctly placed.
• Weak coffee: Ensure you are using the correct amount of coffee grounds/beans for the water volume. Check grind setting if using whole beans.
• Overflowing filter basket: Do not overfill the filter basket. Ensure the filter is properly seated.
• Grinder not working: Check if the bean hopper lid is securely closed. Ensure there are beans in the hopper.
• Coffee tastes bad: Clean the coffee maker thoroughly, including descaling. Use fresh, quality coffee and filtered water.
