Problem Cause Solution
Adding milk reduces the
temperature of the drink. Regardless of whether you add hot or
cold milk, adding milk always reduces
the temperature of the coffee. Preheat
the cups by rinsing them with hot water.
Coffee does not come
out or coffee comes out
slowly. The AquaClean water filter was
not prepared properly for
installation. Remove the AquaClean filter and
dispense some hot water. If this works,
the AquaClean filter was not installed
properly. Reinstall and activate the
AquaClean filter and follow all steps in
chapter 'AquaClean water filter'.
After a long period of non-use, you
need to prepare the AquaClean water
filter for use again and dispense 2-3
cups of hot water.
The AquaClean water filter is
clogged. Replace the AquaClean water filter
every 3 months. A filter that is older
than 3 months can become clogged.
The grinder is set to a too fine
setting. Set the grinder to a coarser (higher)
setting. Note that this will impact the
coffee taste.
The brew group is dirty. Remove the brew group and rinse it
under the tap (see 'Cleaning the brew
group under the tap').
The coffee dispensing spout is
dirty. Clean the coffee dispensing spout and
its holes with a pipe cleaner or needle.
The pre-ground coffee
compartment is clogged Switch off the machine and remove the
brew group. Open the lid of the pre-
ground coffee compartment and insert
the spoon handle into it. Move the
handle up and down until the clogged
ground coffee falls down (Fig. 24).
The machine circuit is blocked
by limescale. Descale the machine with Philips
descaler (see 'Descaling procedure').
Always descale when the machine
prompts you.
The milk does not froth. The internal cappuccinatore is
dirty or not inserted correctly. Clean the internal cappuccinatore and
make sure that you position and insert it
correctly (see 'Cleaning the internal
cappuccinatore under the tap').
The type of milk used is not
suitable for frothing. Different types of milk result in different
amounts of froth and different froth
qualities.
The milk is splashing. The milk you use is not cold
enough. Make sure you use cold milk coming
directly from the fridge.
