How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker before cleaning the control panel.

  • Dry the panel: Wipe the control area with a dry, soft cloth. If it has been exposed to steam or spills, allow it to air dry for several hours.
  • Avoid harsh cleaners: Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners that can damage the touch surface.
  • Power cycle: Unplug for 10 minutes, then plug back in and test button response.
  • Check for physical damage: Look for cracks or warping of the panel that might indicate liquid intrusion.
  • If unresponsive persists: The keypad membrane or control board may need replacement, which requires opening the housing.
