How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the unit is placed where it cannot be accidentally switched off at the outlet.

  • Set clock correctly: Verify the current time and AM/PM are set correctly on the display.
  • Reprogram auto-brew: Follow the user manual to set the auto-brew time and confirm the indicator icon is lit.
  • Avoid power loss: Plug into a stable outlet and avoid switching the outlet off at night.
  • Board issue: If auto-brew still fails despite correct settings and stable power, the control board's timer function may be defective and require replacement.
