Display says "ventilate" and won't operate

Try ventilating and descaling the machine. More details about each can be easily found by googling.

you have to change the water flow.It is gone.You need new one

Hi!

I have a saeco incanto deluxe, it was same problem, i just "reset to factory settings"
in the menu, and then the maschine worked again :-)

Hi
For the Royal Pro there is a button that has a drop sign(water drop) on it. You have to push the drop button to flow water from the steam wand. This should clear the ventilate but if it doesn't check my other tips for "Ventilate"

Hi
There is a water button you need to push. It has a water drop on it. This will clear the ventilate message.

Hi
You need to run water through the wand to prime the machine. Push the button that has or says water or a drop. The display will say "hot water". When the "ventilate" disappears it will say "warming up". You are primed.

Check the end of the steam spout using a paperclip make sure it is not blocked.

Hi,

try to set the grinder to grind little more coarse, you have to make 2-3 cup to get the new settings to work.

To get off the ventilate you have to press the button for hot water and make a cup of water.

Hope this will help you.

Can you get water out of the machine by pushing the hot water button?

This is how you would remove the ventilate message in the first place, but if no water comes out then the machines electro-valve is not opening and you will not be able to remove the ventilate message. You will have to get the machine serviced.

I would also give descaling the machine a try before servicing the machine.

Ventilate just means that the system has senced a lack of water flow and shut down. Push the button to have water come out the wand and that should reprime the unit. If however no water comes out and the message stays on then you have another problem If water does come out but the message stays on then you have another problem. If in either of these cases you should google "saeco repair" and send it to an authorized saeco repair center to have it fixed.
