Problem

Solution

The indicator light continues to

blink slowly.

You have not yet flushed the coffee machine (see chapter ‘Preparing the

machine for use’.
You have used the SENSEO® coffee machine at an altitude higher

than 2200 metres above sea level. This has caused the water in the

machine to start boiling before it has reached the required temperature.

This prevents the machine from functioning properly. Switch off the

machine and no longer use it at altitudes higher than 2200 metres above

sea level.

The SENSEO® coffee machine

does not produce coffee when it

is switched on for the first time.

You have not yet flushed the coffee machine. When you use the machine

for the first time, you have to flush it before you can start brewing coffee

(see chapter ‘Preparing the machine for use’).

The indicator light continues to

blink rapidly.

Make sure that:

you have placed the water reservoir properly;
there is enough water in the water reservoir (i.e. above the ° MIN level

if you want to brew 1 cup);
the ambient temperature is not lower than 10°C. If it is, the machine

does not function properly.

Water leaks from the coffee

machine.

Make sure that:

you have closed the lid properly (the lever must be properly locked);
you have not filled the water reservoir beyond the MAX level;
the sieve in the centre of the pod holder is not clogged. If the sieve

is clogged, unclog it by rinsing the pod holder under a running tap. If

necessary, use a washing-up brush or a pin to unclog the sieve;
you have put the coffee pod properly in the centre of the pod holder;
the sealing ring is not stuck under the edge of the water distribution disc;
the water drops on the worktop are not the result of placing or

removing the water reservoir or removing used coffee pods;
you do not remove the water reservoir when the coffee machine is

heating up. This may cause water that normally ends up in the water

reservoir to leak out of the machine.
In all other cases, contact the Philips Customer Care Centre in your

country.

The lid cannot be opened.

A vacuum may have temporarily formed under the lid.
Switch off the machine. Pull the lever up as far as it goes and wait 24

hours before you open the lid. You may need to use quite some force.
Make sure that the sieve in the centre of the pod holder is not clogged. If

the sieve is clogged, unclog it by rinsing the pod holder under a running

tap. If necessary, use a washing-up brush or a pin to unclog the sieve.
If problems continue to occur, contact the Philips Customer Care Centre

in your country.

The coffee machine produces

less coffee than before.

Perhaps the sieve in the centre of the pod holder is clogged. If the sieve

is clogged, unclog it by rinsing the pod holder under a running tap. If

necessary, use a washing-up brush or a pin to unclog the sieve.
Descale the machine (see chapter ‘Descaling’).

The SENSEO® coffee machine

brews only a small quantity of

coffee or no coffee at all when it

is used for the first time.

You have not flushed the machine properly before first use. As a result,

the boiler is not or not completely filled. Flush the machine properly (see

chapter ‘Preparing the machine for use’) before you brew another cup of

coffee.

The lid cannot be closed

properly.

Perhaps a used coffee pod is sticking to the water distribution disc. If this

is the case, remove the used pod.

The machine has been stored in

a room that was not frost-free.

Contact the Philips Customer Care Centre in your country.

The SENSEO® coffee is not

strong enough.

Make sure that:

you have used the correct number of pods and have pressed the right

button. Use 1 pod in combination with the 1-cup pod holder ° and the

1-cup button °. Use 2 pods in combination with the 2-cup pod holder
°°

and the 2-cup button °°;
