How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Use only recommended descaling agents and follow the manual.

  • Restart descaling: Fill the tank with descaling solution and start the descaling program from the beginning.
  • Do not interrupt: Allow the full cycle to complete, including any pauses and rinses.
  • Perform extra rinse: After descaling, run additional clean water cycles to ensure sensors and flow meter are clear.
  • Reset indicator: Use the specified button combination to reset the descaling LED (varies by model).
  • If light remains on: The control PCB may have a firmware issue; consult service if the machine otherwise works normally.
