CORRECTIVE ACTION
Before removing the water tank, wait for 15 seconds
after the coffee has finished flowing so that the appli-
ance finishes its cycle properly.
Check that the drip tray is correctly positioned on the
appliance; it should always be in place, even when the
appliance is not in use.
Check that the drip tray is not full.
The drip tray should not be removed during a cycle.
Clean the tank and its connection regularly to avoid the
build up of scale, which can cause leaks.
Remove the coffee grounds collector and ensure it is
empty and clean. Wait at least 6 seconds before replac-
ing, and ensure it is correctly installed.
Turn the coffee fineness dial to the right to make the
grounds courser (this could also depend on the type of
coffee used).
Run one or several rinsing cycles.
Change the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge (see
"Installing the filter").

nozzle may drip slightly.
Only change the grinder setting when it is running.

Avoid using oily, caramelised or flavoured coffee. Check
that the coffee bean container has coffee in it and that it
is dispensing correctly.
Decrease the drink volume, increase the drink strength.
Turn the coffee fineness dial to the left to make the
grounds finer.
