the correct position.

Bring the control dial back to “ ”.

Steady on

The machine is brewing a double coff ee.

The light is steady on at the beginning of the descaling 

cycle.

Prime the circuit and continue the descaling cycle.

 Steady on

Low water level.

Fill the water tank with fresh water. After refi lling the water tank,

With the machine turned on, empty the coff ee ground drawer. The 
coff ee ground drawer must be emptied after every 8 coff ee cycles. If 
the coff ee ground drawer is emptied with the machine turned off , or 
when the indicator light is not illuminated, the count of coff ee cycles 
is not reset. For this reason, the indicator light to empty the coff ee 
ground drawer may illuminate even when it is not full.
