Troubleshooting
PROBLEM THINGS TO CHECK
Coffee tastes
bad. • Coffee maker needs cleaning.
• Poor coffee quality and freshness.
• Poor water quality (use filtered or bottled
water).
Water on
counter under
unit. • Overfilled water reservoir. Also check
cup used to fill reservoir. Some mugs/
cups do not pour cleanly and can dribble
water down the side of the cup and onto
counter.
Coffee maker
will not brew. • Make sure you have allowed for the
2 minutes of cool-down time.
• Check for water in water reservoir. If there
is no water in the reservoir and the brew
button is pushed, the unit will not brew.
Coffee
overflows from
mug. • To prevent coffee overflowing from a mug,
use the same mug to brew into that was
used to fill the water reservoir. Do not add
more than 10 ounces (296 ml) of water.
Water remaining
in reservoir. • Added too much water. Remove single-
serve pack and replace brew basket.
Repeat brewing cycle.
Noise or steam
at the end of
brew cycle. • Reduce amount of water in reservoir.
• Brew a different type of single-serve pack.
