PROBLEM:: SOLUTION:
Indicator lights are flashing If all button lights are flashing in sequence, it is time to clean the
coffeemaker. See decalcification instructions on page 11.
When the Grind button indicator is flashing, your grinder is overloaded.
Press the Power button and unplug the unit. Wait 5 seconds, the Grind
button will illuminate to grind again. If the Grind indicator is still flashing,
remove the burr grinder and clean it well.
If all Brew Size buttons are flashing, the coffeemaker is overloaded.
Coffeemaker can be used again after all lights stop flashing. Please
return appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center if all lights don’t
stop flashing.
Coffeemaker will not brew After placing either the HomeBarista
®
Reusable Filter Cup or a pod in
the brew chamber, make sure the handle is pushed down securely. All
button indicators should be illuminated solid. Press the desired Brew
Size button to begin brewing.
When the grind cycle is active, brewing cannot begin until grinding
is completed or canceled. To cancel the grind cycle, press the Grind
button once. To begin brewing, open and close the brew head.
Press the desired Brew Size button to begin brewing.
If the Add Water indicator is illuminated, check to make sure the water
reservoir is properly filled. If not, add water and make sure the water
reservoir is properly seated in its base.
The piercing needle and/or exit needle may be clogged (see page 10).
Coffeemaker not grinding
beans
Coffee beans may be too tightly packed. Do not fill above Max Fill line.
When the unit is brewing, the grinder function cannot be activated until
brewing is completed or canceled. To cancel the brew cycle, press the
Brew Size button once. To begin grinding, press the Grind button once.
Grinder may be jammed. Use the scoop brush to clean the grind
outlet and clear away excess grounds. The burr can also be removed for
cleaning. To remove the burr, turn the grind assembly until the lock
indicators are aligned. Pull the burr holder towards you and remove from
the unit.
Coffee residue appears on
lid of grinder
This is normal and will occur each time you grind beans. It should not
affect coffee flavor when brewing consecutive cups.
Coffee is not strong enough If the chute on the coffee grinder is not cleaned, it is possible for it to
collect enough residue to inhibit the flow of coffee grinds into the filter
basket – this will make your coffee weaker than expected. Be sure to
clean the chute portion when cleaning the coffee grinder.
Reduce the brew size for a stronger-tasting cup of coffee or try an
extra-bold coffee capsule.
