POSSIBLE CAUSE

SOLUTION

EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER

The grounds container (A13) is full. Empty the grounds container and drip tray 

(A17), clean and replace. Important: when 
removing the drip tray, the grounds contai-
ner must be emptied, even if it contains few 
grounds. If this is not done, when you make 
the next coffees, the grounds container may fill 
up more than expected and clog the machine.

FILL TANK

Insufficient water in the tank (A9).

Fill the tank with water and/or insert it correct-
ly, pushing it as far as it will go until it clicks 
into place.

INSERT TANK

The tank (A9) is not correctly in 
place.

Insert the tank correctly and press as far as it 
will go.

INSERT GROUNDS CONTAINER

After cleaning, the grounds contai-
ner has not been replaced (A13).

Remove the drip tray (A17) and insert the 
grounds container.

GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL 
alternating with 
TURN STEAM DIAL

The grinding is too fine and the 
coffee is delivered too slowly or 
not at all.

Repeat coffee delivery and turn the grin-
ding adjustment dial (A2 - fig. 10) one click 
clockwise towards «7» while the coffee mill is 
in operation. If after making at least 2 coffees 
delivery is still too slow, repeat the correction 
procedure, turning the grinding adjustment 
dial another click until delivery is correct (see 
the section: «9.4 Adjusting the coffee mill». If 
the problem persists, turn the steam dial to 
the 

I

 position and let some water run from the 

cappuccino maker (A19).

If the water softener filter (C4) is 
present, an air bubble may have 
been released inside the circuit, 
obstructing delivery.

Deliver a little water by turning the steam dial 
(A20) to the 

I

 position until the flow is regular.

ADD PRE-GROUND COFFEE

The  «pre-ground coffee» function 
has been selected without placing 
any pre-ground coffee in the fun-
nel (A6).

Place pre-ground coffee in the funnel or dese-
lect the “pre-ground” function.

DESCALE

The machine must be descaled.

The descaling procedure described in the «13. 
Descaling» section needs to be performed as 
soon as possible.

REDUCE COFFEE AMOUNT

Too much coffee has been used.

Select a milder taste or reduce the quantity 
of pre-ground coffee, then make the coffee 
again.
