What to do if espresso coffee does not flow out of my DeLonghi EC820?
If your DeLonghi Coffee Maker isn't dispensing espresso, the possible causes include an empty water tank, blocked holes in the filter-holder, or a blocked espresso boiler outlet. To resolve this, fill the water tank, clean the holes in the filter-holder spouts, or clean the espresso boiler outlet as described in the “Cleaning” paragraph.
What to do if my DeLonghi Coffee Maker is on but the lights are flashing?
If your DeLonghi Coffee Maker is on but not working, and the lights are flashing, it means that the selectors are not in the correct position. To fix this, turn the selectors into the correct position. Note that upon activation, the selectors must both be on.
How to fix a DeLonghi EC820 that will not switch on?
If your DeLonghi Coffee Maker won't switch on, the power supply cable may not be inserted correctly. Check that the power supply cable connector is fully inserted in the appropriate seat on the back of the device; then, check that the plug is correctly connected to the power outlet.
Why does espresso coffee drip from the edges of the filter-holder on my DeLonghi EC820 Coffee Maker?
If espresso coffee drips from the edges of the filter-holder instead of through the holes on your DeLonghi Coffee Maker, it could be due to incorrect insertion or dirtiness of the filter-holder, loss of elasticity or dirtiness of the espresso boiler gasket, or blocked holes in the filter-holder spout. Try attaching the filter-holder correctly and turning it fully to the right. If that doesn't work, clean the holes in the spouts. If the issue persists, the espresso boiler gasket might need replacement, in which case you should contact Customer Services.
