• Twist the filter holder a little more
firmly into the retainer.
• Clean any espresso grounds away
from the rim of the filter holder.
E) No espresso is coming out:
• If there is a loud noise from the ma-
chine, this means air is in the system.
Let hot water flow through the nozzle
until there is a steady flow. Then try
brewing coffee again.
• Ensure that the water tank has been
filled and is correctly in place.
• Ensure that the filter holder has been
placed correctly.
• Ensure that the selector dial has been
turned right to the position.

F) The crema is no longer being pro-
duced as it should:

grounds in the filter.
• Press the espresso grounds lightly.
• Clean the filter.
G) Too little milk froth is created when
steaming milk:
• Always use cool, fresh, low-fat milk.

ground too rough.
• Ensure that there are enough espresso
grounds in the filter.
I) The coffee machine switches itself
off while operating:
• The appliance pump is equipped with
a temperature fuse that protects it
from overheating. The temperature
fuse interrupts the machine's opera-
tion, if the machine is operated for
too long or if the pump is run without
water.
• Set the selector dial to "0" and remove
the plug from the mains socket.
• Leave the machine to cool for at least
20 minutes. Fill up with water.
• Plug the appliance into the mains
again and switch it on. If the appliance
still does not work, please contact our
Customer Care Department.
