11.1 “Error” Appearing on the LCD Screen
Error
Overflow Drip Tray
This message indicates that there is water in the overflow drip tray of the
machine.
SOLUTION
Inspect the overflow drip tray underneath the machine to make sure it is clean and dry.
Error
Low Water Level!
This message indicates that the water level in the tank is too low.
SOLUTION
1. Check if the water gets in the tank. If so, the message on the LCD screen should disappear in a
few minutes.
2. Check if the entrance of the water is working (main water source is on, inlet valve is not obstructed,
etc.)
3. Inspect the overflow drip tray and make sure it is clean and dry. Even if your overflow detection is
not activated, the inlet valve (DS10) won’t work and it will indicate this message.
4. Check the water level switch. If there is chocolate and/or coffee on the top of the lid it might keep
the switch from working properly.
5. Make sure the water level switch is properly adjusted.
Error
Brewer Error
This message indicates that the coupling (dog drive) is not at its starting
position.
SOLUTION
1. This situation might arrive when the inside of the machine is soiled and the brewer switch gets wet.
Clean the switch and make sure it is dry. When you will turn the machine back ON,
it will reset itself.
2. Check the coupling (dog driver). If the safety pin is still in place and properly installed.
3. Make sure the brewer switch stops when the little roller of the brewer switch gets in the
coupling hole. If it is not you may have to readjust the arm with pointed-nose pliers.
Change filter paper
Filter paper empty
This message indicates that the filter paper roll is empty.
SOLUTION
Make sure the filter paper roll is correctly placed. Put a new roll if it is too low.
(It is normal to have 1/6 to 1/8 of paper left on the roll).
