Troubleshooting
Coffee tastes bad.
Coffee Maker needs cleaning.
Coffee ground too coarsely or
too finely. Set coffee grinder to
automatic drip grind.
Poor coffee quality and freshness.
Poor water quality (use filtered or
bottled water).
Water on counter under unit.
Overfilled Water Reservoir.
Coffee Maker Light will not turn on
and will not brew.
Make sure you have allowed for
2 minutes of cool-down time.
Check for water in Water
Reservoir. If there is no water in
Reservoir and BREW Button is
pushed, Coffee Maker will not
brew.
Coffee overflows from Funnel.
Use a lesser amount of ground
coffee.
When using whole bean coffee,
a standard automatic drip coffee
grind will yield best results. Be
careful not to overgrind, since
very finely ground coffee can
cause overflow in this Coffee
Maker.
Coffee overflows from mug.
This Coffee Maker brews 10
ounces (284 mL) of coffee. To
prevent coffee overflowing,
ensure that your cup or mug will
hold 10 to 12 (284 to 341 mL)
ounces.
Brewing cycle has been
interrupted. When Coffee Maker
is stopped, it will start over and
brew 10 ounces (284 mL).
Coffee not dispensing.
Piercing Needle is clogged with
coffee grounds. Turn Coffee
Maker off; unplug. Allow Coffee
Maker to cool completely. To
remove any built-up coffee
grounds, insert end of bent paper
clip into Needle and move up and
down needle to ensure grounds
have been removed.
Failed foil seal on Single-Serve Pod.
There is variability in the single-
serve pod manufacturing process
which causes some types of
single-serve pods to be weaker
at the seams. Let cool 2 minutes
between brewing, or try a
different brand.
Water bubble in Water Reservoir.
If making a second cup of coffee
immediately after the first, you
may notice a gurgle of water and
steam when Lid is opened. It is
recommended to wait 2 minutes
between brews for Coffee Maker
to cool down.
