      If no coffee or tea is flowing when using the NX® adaptor, consider the following: * Ensure the water tank is correctly seated. * The showerhead and NX® adaptor may be blocked: Remove the showerhead and clean. Use the filter pin to clean out the holes in the NX® adaptor. Descale your machine with the NX® adaptor locked tightly in place. * The coffee/tea in the capsule is stale: Check capsule best before date on the capsule packaging. * Capsule needs piercing. * Water leaking from NX® Adaptor: Check the NX® Adaptor Seal is there and has not split.

      If your machine stops during use, it might be due to an empty water tank. To prevent an air lock, first remove the filter holder, then fill the water tank. Your machine should now be ready to extract your next coffee.

      Several factors could be responsible for this issue. Check the following: * Ensure the water tank is correctly seated. * The showerhead and cup filter may be blocked, thus you should clean them. * Avoid tamping too hard; LIGHTLY ‘tamp’ the coffee grounds. * Ensure you are using setting 3-5 on the Dualit coffee grinder or use a pre-ground coffee suitable for espresso machines and clean the cup filter. * Use the measuring spoon to ensure there is not too much coffee in the cup filter.
