How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug and cool before cleaning needles or opening covers.
- Clean single-serve needle: Use the provided cleaning tool or a paper clip to clear the needle holes. Rinse thoroughly.
- Descale single-serve side: Run a descaling cycle focusing on the single-serve outlet by brewing several small cups of vinegar solution.
- Check selector: Ensure any selector lever or button is set to the single-serve position and moves freely.
- Test without pod: Run a water-only cycle. If no water flows, the single-serve heater or pump path may be faulty.
If only the single-serve side remains inoperative, internal components specific to that circuit may need replacement.
