Decalcification Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium deposits which form over time on the metal parts of the coffeemaker. For best performance from your Brew Central Thermal™ Coffeemaker, decalcify the base unit from time to time. The frequency depends upon the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the coffeemaker. The flashing Clean light will indicate when you should clean your coffeemaker. If the Clean light begins to flash when the coffeemaker is turned on, it is telling you that the calcium buildup is interfering with the functioning of your coffeemaker and the flavor of your coffee. To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of ¹⁄³ white vinegar and ²⁄³ water. Press the Clean button. When the self clean light glows, turn the coffeemaker on by pressing the on/off button. The Clean light will shine steadily. The coffeemaker is now in Clean mode. One cycle should be sufficient to adequately clean the coffeemaker. When the cycle is completed and the five beeps sound, the coffeemaker will shut off. Turn the coffeemaker ON to see if the Clean light continues to flash. If it does, turn it to OFF and then repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh solution of vinegar and water. If the Clean light no longer flashes, turn the coffeemaker to OFF and then run one cycle of fresh cold water through the unit before using the unit again to brew coffee. Notes on the Clean F unction Pressing the Clean button cancels all other settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it again to return the coffeemaker to all its previous settings. Pressing ON/OFF will also exit the Clean Mode and turn the coffeemaker OF
Open the brew mechanism. Opening the brew mechanism will initiate the heating of the water and the HEATING light will flash. 2 Place a clean cup on the cup stand, adjusting the height of the stand up or down so that the rim of the cup is close to the brew mechanism. • To adjust the cup stand, insert your finger in the center of the stand, lift and turn. • To avoid spilling over, please choose the right sized cup for the drink you are making. 3 Position your choice of T-DISC on the T-DISC holder, label facing down. Firmly close the brew mechanism by pressing the clamp down until it shuts. The HEATING light may flash again as the machine heats the water to the required temperature for your drink. 4 When the AUTO light illuminates, press and release the start/stop button. Brewing will start automatically. There may be a short pause during brewing; this is normal and is designed to draw out the full flavor of your drink. The AUTO light flashes throughout the brew cycle. When the machine has finished brewing, the indicator light will move from AUTO to MANUAL and then, after a delay of 30 seconds, to HEATING. 5 Open the brew mechanism, remove the T-DISC and discard. Your drink is now ready to be enjoyed. You can prepare the next beverage right away by repeating steps 2 - 5.
• All lights will blink the first time you turn on your machine. This is your cue to prepare your machine for use by following the quick instructions in Step 1 on separate insert. • If the water level runs low while you are preparing a beverage, all lights will flash. Simply remove and refill the water container, and brewing will continue automatically where it left off. It should not be necessary to discard the T-DISC and start over. • The AUTO light will blink throughout the brewing process. Some drinks require a pause in brewing as part of the recipe for brewing your perfect cup - this is to allow the optimal flavors to unfold and is a normal part of the brewing process. The AUTO light will continue to blink throughout this process.
HOW TO MAKE A DRINK • Place the mug of your choice on the cup stand. • When the STANDBY light illuminates, insert the T-DISC® of your choice and close the clamp. • The HEATING light will blink as the brewer heats the water to the optimal temperature for your drink. • Once the proper temperature is reached, the AUTO light will illuminate. When it lights up, press the start/stop button to begin the brew cycle. • The AUTO light will continue to flash throughout the brewing cycle. PLEASE NOTE: Some beverages have a pause in brewing after the initial influx of water into the T-DISC®. • The MANUAL light will illuminate when your drink is ready.
What will the machine do when you turn it on? The green light will start flashing for warming up phase. When it reaches the working temperature, all the lights start flashing in anticlockwise direction and the brew group moves up and start pumping water to rinse the system.Of course half an inch of water will come out from the spout. That is normal.
The 'Start' & 'Pause' LED's will flash together to indicate the
error code. You have to count the flashes within each 15 second period
to get that error code. The start and the pause LED's will flash
together at 1Hz (i.e 1 flash per second) within that 15 second time
frame, then will continue and show again within another 15secs and so
on.
1 Flash = Interlock fault
2 Flashes = Fill time-out
3 flashes = Drain time-out
4 flashes = Overfill fault presure pipe blocked
5 flashes = NTC error
6 flashes = faulty control board
7 flashes = Motor jammed
8 flashes = Tacho fault
9 flashes = Motor triac on module board
10 flashes = Prog Selector or wiring fault
Hi Caution light usually means something is out of place. Nothing will work until everything is in place and locked. Steady water light means it needs to be primed, (run water by opening the steam knob). It won't heat until the boilers are primed.
I had the same issue. This is what a did:
Turn off the machine
Remove the tray/container and leave it outside
Turn on the machine and this time the power button should be flashing (preheating) then hold both cup buttons for 3 sec and it will be back to normal opertion....
For some reason the sensor needs to read that the tray/container is out of the machine...
