							. . . coffee is not dispensed, even though the
beans have been ground and there is sufficient
water in the water container.
^Check whether the slide control for the fineness of
the coffee is at the finest setting or if the slide
control for the amount of coffee to be ground has
been set at the largest amount.
Because the process is time controlled it is possible
that the process has taken so long that there is no
time left for brewing.
^Select a slightly coarser coffee grinder setting or a
lower setting for the amount of coffee to be
ground.
. . . the descaling process was started by
mistake.
^Press ENTER once.
The programme is cancelled.
If there is any descaling agent in the water
container, empty the water container and rinse it
thoroughly with clean water to remove any residual
descaling agent.
The descaling programme cannot be cancelled
once the steam dial has been operated. The
programme has to be completed through to the end.
This is a safety measure, to ensure that the machine
is fully descaled and to prevent the descaling
programme being shortened. This is important to
protect the machine and ensure it functions
correctly.
