Buttons Not Working - Unable to Start

Possible Solutions

Does the machine need to be cleaned? 

  • If the Clean light is flashing, the machine must be descaled to continue to brew espresso. 
  • If the Clean light is solid, the machine has started a cleaning cycle and can not be canceled.  Allow the machine to finish the cycle. 

Refer to this troubleshooting guide's "Cleaning" section for additional information on the descaling process.
