Machine frequently asks to empty the coffee grounds container even when it is nearly empty.

Safety first: Unplug the machine before cleaning the container area.

• Empty and clean container: Remove the coffee grounds container, wash and dry it thoroughly.
• Clean sensor area: Wipe the area where the container slides in, including any sensor tabs or switches.
• Insert firmly: Reinsert the container fully until it stops.
• Avoid mid-cycle removal: Do not remove the container while the machine is brewing, as this can confuse the counter.
