EASY SOLUTION WHAT TO DO
•
Portafilter
not inserted
in the group
head correctly.
•
There are coffee
grounds around the
filter basket rim.
•
Filter basket rim is
wet or underside of
portafilter lugs are
wet. Wet surfaces
reduce the friction
required to hold
the portafilter in
place whilst under
pressure during
an extraction.
•
Clock not set or
clock is set with
incorrect time.
•
A fault has occured
and machine
cannot operate.
•
Using highly
filtered,
demineralized
or distilled water
which is affecting
how the machine
is designed
to function.
•
Ensure portafilter is rotated to the right until the
handle is past the center and is securely locked in
place. Rotating past the center will not damage the
silicone seal.
•
Clean excess coffee from the rim of the filter
basket after grinding to ensure a proper seal
in group head.
•
Always ensure filter basket and portafilter are dried
thoroughly before filling with coffee, tamping and
inserting into the group head.
•
Check that the clock and Auto Start time have
been programmed correctly. The LCD will
display a clock icon when the Auto Start time
is programmed.

We recommend using

as highly filtered, demineralized or distilled
water. If the problem persists, contact Breville
