● Make sure that the voltage indicated on the appliance
corresponds to the local mains voltage.
● Is the power cord plugged completely into the power socket?

● Use ground coffee of a stronger blend or flavour. To increase
the coffee strength, increase the amount of pre-ground coffee
or reduce the amount of water.

Too much fine grinding will cause a choke especially when
using the permanent filter.
