Troubleshooting

for a list of frequently
asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.
Problem
Solution
The CALC light
flashes.
You have pressed the 1-cup button and the 2-cup
button at the same time. This started the descaling
cycle. If you did not intend to start the descaling
cycle, simply press the on/off button to switch off the
machine. If you did intend to start the descaling cycle,
do not interrupt this cycle but let the appliance
operate until the water reservoir is empty.
The CALC
light lights up
continuously after
descaling.
The descaling procedure has not been completed.
Perform the descaling procedure as described in
chapter CALC. Do not switch off the machine during
descaling.
The light ring
around the on/off
button continues
to flash rapidly.
Make sure that the water reservoir is placed properly.
Check if there is enough water in the water reservoir
(i.e. above the MIN level if you want to brew 1 cup);
Check if the float in the water reservoir may be
stuck. Empty the water reservoir and shake it a few
times to release the float. Clean the water reservoir
with hot water and some washing-up liquid, or in the
dishwasher.
Water leaks
from the coffee
machine.
Make sure that you do not overfill the water
reservoir.
Check if the sieve is clogged. If the sieve is clogged,
use a washing-up brush to unclog the sieve.
If you cannot clean it properly with the washing-up
brush, put the pod holder in the machine and descale
the machine (see chapter CALC).
Make sure that the coffee pod has been put properly
in the centre of the pod holder.
In all other cases, contact the Philips Consumer Care
Centre in your country.
