ProblemSolution
The pilot light continues to blink You have not yet flushed the coffee machine. See
slowly'Preparing the machine for use'.
You have used the Senseo\ coffee machine at
an altitude higher than 1500 metres above sea
level. This has caused the water in the machine to
start boiling before it has reached the required
temperature, which prevents the machine from
functioning properly. Switch the machine off and
no longer use it at altitudes higher than 1500
metres above sea level.
The Senseo\ coffee machineYou have not flushed the coffee machine before
does not produce coffee when using it for the first time. As a result, the boiler is
used for the first timenot filled completely. Flush the coffee machine
(see 'Preparing the machine for use') before you
start brewing coffee.
The pilot light continues to blink Make sure that:
rapidly
the water reservoir has been properly placed;
there is enough water in the water reservoir (i.e.
above the ° MIN level if you want to brew 1
cup);
the ambient temperature is not lower than 10cC.
If it is, the appliance will not function properly.
Water leaks from the coffeeMake sure that:
machine
the lid is properly closed (the lever must be
properly locked);
the water reservoir has not been filled beyond
the MAX level;
the hole in the centre of the pod holder is not
clogged. If it is, unclog the hole by holding the
pod holder under a running tap. If necessary, you
can use a washing-up brush or a pin to unclog the
hole;
the coffee pod has been put properly in the
centre of the pod holder;
the sealing ring has not got stuck under the edge
of the water distribution plate (see drawing at the
beginning of these instructions for use).
NB: It is perfectly normal for some drops of water
to spill onto the worktop. This may happen, for
instance, when you place or remove the water
reservoir. Be careful when removing used coffee
pods, for there may still be some water on the
pods.
Do not remove the water reservoir when the
coffee machine is heating up, as this may cause
some water to leak out of the machine (this
water would normally end up in the water
reservoir).
In all other cases, contact the Philips Customer
Care Centre in your country.

it will go and wait 24 hours before opening the
lid. You may need to use quite some force.
Make sure that the hole in the centre of the pod
holder is not clogged. If it is, unclog the hole by
holding the pod holder under a running tap. If
necessary, you can use a washing-up brush or a
pin to unclog the hole.
If problems continue to occur, contact the Philips
Customer Care Centre in your country.
