How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the coffee maker and let it cool fully.
- Remove capsule: Open the capsule lever/door fully and remove any capsule. Check for crushed or misaligned capsules stuck in the L’OR capsule chamber.
- Clean capsule chamber: Use a soft brush and a damp cloth to remove coffee residues around the piercing needles and brew chamber.
- Reset brew unit: With the machine unplugged, open and close the capsule lever several times to mechanically reset the brew group position.
- Power cycle: Plug the machine back in, turn it on, and wait until it completes its self‑test. Then run a rinse cycle without a capsule.
- If E04 persists: The brew unit drive motor, gears, or position sensor may be defective. Internal disassembly is complex; contact an authorized L’OR service center.
