PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTIONS
The coffee
maker does not
supply boiling
water for
tisanes.

and deactivated the pump.
Make sure the tank is properly inserted and that the water is
not below the minimum level.

Coffee
overowing
from the edges
of the lter ring.
Probably an excess amount of
ground coffee has been placed in
the lter ring preventing the lter ring
from being correctly tightened into its
housing.
Remove the lter holder and clean the coupling seat with a
sponge (Fig. 11). Repeat the operation placing the correct
quantity of coffee in the lter.
Residues of ground coffee have
remained on the gasket of the lter
holder coupling seat.
Clean the seal with a toothpick or a sponge (Fig. 11).
The exit hole of the lter containing
coffee grounds is clogged.
Clean the clogged lter hole with a pin (Fig. 10). Clean
the lter using Ariete COFFEE CLEAN tabs, following the
instructions provided in the package.
The coffee is
not supplied
or ows too
slowly.
The holes of the lter holder coupling
seat are clogged.
Turn on the machine without the lter holder, making the
water run.

The coffee blend is ground too ne. Try using coarser coffee blends.
The coffee blend is pressed down
too much.
Tamper coffee inside the lter using less pressure.
The tanks is not inserted well. Fit the tank securely by pushing it as far as it will go.
There is little water and the pump
does not suck it up.

too watery and
cold.
The blend has been ground too
coarsely.
A more nely ground blend must be used to obtain a more
concentrated and hotter coffee.
Anyhow, this problem is easily solved thanks to the Ther-
mocream® System, which always guarantees hot coffee
accompanied by a reach cream, even with coarsely ground
beans.
