Troubleshooting - ARIETE 1385 Manual De Instrucciones

PROBLEMS
The coffee maker
does not supply
boiling water for
tisanes
The coffee maker
does not supply
steam.
Coffee overflowing
from the edges of the
filter ring
Outflow of the first
coffee does not
occur or occurs too
slowly.
The coffee is too
watery and cold.

TROUBLESHOOTING

CAUSE
Air has probably en-
tered the circuit and
deactivated the pump.
Probably an excess
amount of ground coffee
has been placed in the
filter ring preventing the
filter ring from being
correctly tightened into
its housing.
It is possible that the
scarce outflow of coffee
also depends on the
insufficient emission of
water from the perfo-
rated showerhead type
disc in the filter ring
housing. In fact it is
possible that after a few
months of use, fat or
lime residues can ob-
struct the disc.
There is not enough
water and the pump
does not suction.
The blend has been
ground too coarsely.
SOLUTIONS
Make sure the tank is properly inserted and that the water
is not below the minimum level.
Repeat the operations described in the "Preliminary
phases for use" paragraph.
Use a pin to unclog the wand.
Make sure the water level in the tank is normal.
Repeat the operation placing the correct quantity of coffee
in the filter.
Residues of coffee grounds have remained on the seal. If
the problem persists after carrying out the above opera-
tions, go to an Authorized Assistance Center.
Check the filter containing the grounds. If the holes are
clogged, clean them with a brush, or use a utensil to hold
the filter over the flame of a gas burner for a few seconds,
the coffee grounds will burn, unclogging the holes.
Operate the coffee maker without the filter ring making the
water flow. If the water does not flow out uniformly from all
the holes it means that the disc is clogged. In this case go
to an Authorized Assistance Center to have it cleaned.
Insert the tank properly by pushing it all the way down.
Fill the tank.
A more finely ground blend must be used to obtain a more
concentrated and hotter coffee.
The problem can be eliminated by using the Ther-
mocream® Disc which always ensures an extremely hot
coffee and rich crema, even with coarsely ground coffee.
