ENGLISH
Help protect the environment!
Your machine contains many recoverable or recyclable materials.
Take these to a collection centre, or to an approved service centre for
processing.
If your appliance does not always work properly, call customer service in your country.
European directive 2012/19/UE on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household
electrical appliances are not thrown into the normal flow of municipal waste. Old appliances must be collected
separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of materials they contain and reduce the impact on
human health and the environment.
Problem Solutions
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. For more information, please
consult the “Descaling” section.
„
CAUTION: do not take the appliance apart
The filter holder overflows or
the coffee flows too slowly. „ The coffee maker needs cleaning.
„
There is too much coffee. We recommend using one measuring spoon or one
soup spoon of ground coffee per cup.
„ The ground coffee is too fine (e.g., ground coffee for espresso won’t work in a
drip coffee maker).
„ There is ground coffee lodged between the paper filter and the filter holder.
„
The paper filter is not open properly or is not well placed.
„
Rinse the filter holder before inserting the paper filter so it will adhere to the
damp walls of the filter basket.
„
Make sure you have not inserted a paper filter at the same time as the permanent
filter.
„
There is more than one paper filter in the filter holder.
„
Make sure the filter holder is pushed down all the way.

instead of coffee beans.
„
Use your vacuum cleaner to remove the pre-ground coffee from the coffee bean
container.
You put water in the coffee
bean compartment.

time difference, we recommend that you program the time once a week to be
