Problem Cause Solution
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. 15).
The machine circuit is blocked
by limescale.
Descale the machine with Philips
descaler. Always descale the machine
when the descaling light starts to flash.
The machine grinds the
coffee beans, but coffee
does not come out.
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. 15).
The machine seems to
be leaking.
The machine uses water to rinse
the internal circuit and brew
group. This water flows through
the internal system directly into
the drip tray. This is normal.
Empty the drip tray every day or as
soon as the 'drip tray full' indicator pops
up through the drip tray cover. Tip:
Place a cup under the dispensing spout
to collect rinsing water and reduce the
amount of water in the drip tray.
The drip tray is too full and has
overflowed which makes it look
like the machine is leaking.
Empty the drip tray every day or as
soon as the 'drip tray full' indicator pops
up through the drip tray cover.
The water tank is not fully
inserted and air is drawn into
the machine.
Make sure the water tank is in the
correct position: remove it and insert it
again pushing it as far as possible.
The brew group is dirty/clogged. Rinse the brew group.
The machine is not placed on a
horizontal surface.
Place the machine on a horizontal
surface so that the drip tray does not
overflow and the 'drip tray full' indicator
works properly.
I cannot activate the
AquaClean water filter
and the machine asks
for descaling.
The filter has not been installed
or replaced in time after the
AquaClean water filter light
started to flash. This means
your machine is not completely
limescale free.
Descale your machine first and then
install the AquaClean water filter.
The new water filter
does not fit.
You are trying to install another
filter than the AquaClean water
filter.
Only the AquaClean water filter fits into
the machine.
The rubber ring on the
AquaClean water filter is not in
place.
Place back the rubber ring on the
AquaClean water filter.
