      If “Er1” flashes on the display of your KitchenAid Coffee Maker and you hear one tone, it could mean that a button is jammed. Unplug the coffee maker and press each button several times. Then, plug the coffee maker back in. If “Er1” reappears on the display, repeat this procedure.

      If only a portion of the water added to your KitchenAid Coffee Maker actually brews, the coffee maker requires immediate descaling. Please refer to the “Care and cleaning” section.
