Display shows 'Empty Grounds Container' after only a few coffees or when container is empty

Safety first: Turn OFF and unplug the machine before cleaning.

• Properly empty container: Remove the grounds container only when the machine is ON and in standby, then empty and clean it.
• Clean sensor area: Wipe the area where the container slides in and clean any coffee residue around the switch.
• Reset by power cycle: Plug the machine back in, turn it ON, and allow it to complete startup. The counter may reset.
• If problem repeats frequently: The microswitch or control board may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
