a. During the rst use of a steam cycle, if no steam comes out correctly:
Check that the hole in the tip is not clogged. See section above: “The steam nozzle of your machine appears to be partially
or completely clogged”.
Carry out the following protocol once and only once:
Empty the water tank and temporarily remove the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge. Fill the tank with mineral water
high in calcium ( > 100 mg/L) and make successive steam cycles (5 to 10 cycles) in a container until a continuous jet of
steam is obtained. Put the cartridge back in the tank.
b. The steam nozzle had already worked:
Check that the hole in the tip is not clogged. See section above: “The steam nozzle of your machine appears to be partially
or completely clogged”.
If after performing the above steps, the steam Nozzle still doesn’t work, please contact KRUPS Consumer Service.
3. Steam escapes from the grid of the drip tray.
Depending on the type of preparation, steam may escape from the grid of the drip tray.
4. Steam appears under the bean container lid.
Check that the cleaning tablet funnel under the cover (L) is closed.
MAINTENANCE
1. The machine does not request descaling.
The descaling cycle is requested following preparation of a large number of milky or hot water-based drinks. If you only
make coee, descaling will not be required frequently.
2. Some grounds are in the drip tray.
A small amount of ground coee can get into the drip tray. The machine is designed to clear any excess ground coee so
that the percolation area remains clean.
3. The Intuitive Light Indicator remains lit after you have emptied the coee grounds collector.
Retting the coee grounds collector.
4. After lling the water container, the Intuitive Light Indicator stays on.
Check the container is positioned correctly in the appliance.
The oats at the bottom of the tank must move freely. Check and dislodge the oats if necessary.
DRINKS
1. The coee ows too slowly.
Turn the grinding neness button to the right for a coarser grind (depending on the type of coee used).
Perform one or several rinse cycles.
Change the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge.
2. The coee is too light or not full-bodied enough.
Check that the bean container contains coee and that it is moving down correctly.
Avoid using oily, caramelised or avoured coees that may not be drawn into the machine correctly.
Decrease the preparation volume and increase the strength using the coee strength function. Turn the grinding neness
button to the left for a ner grind. Make your drink in two cycles using the two-cup function.
3. The Espresso or coee is not hot enough.
Increase the coee temperature in the machine settings. Heat the cup by rinsing it in hot water before preparing the drink.
Perform a coee system rinse before starting your coee. A coee rinse on start function can be activated in settings/auto-
rinse.
4. Clean water ows through the coee nozzles before each coee.
At the start of the recipe, there is a pre-infusion of coee which can cause a small amount of water to ow from the coee
nozzles.
If one of the problems outlined in the table persists, contact KRUPS Consumer Service.
