Frequently asked
questions
Why are all the buttons flashing at a fast rate?
This indicates a fault. Switch off the machine and unplug the mains cord from the wall socket.
Why is the drink not dispensed properly?
Check that the spent capsule container is not full. Press the lever down completely. If necessary,
descale the machine – refer to the section “Descaling the machine”.
Why is the drink dispensed with delay?
The machine is still heating up.
What do I do if the spent capsule container is overfull and jammed?
Try to remove the spent capsule container by jogging the container gently to and fro. The spent
capsule container will only hold up to 10 spent capsules and needs to be regularly emptied.
Why is the drink not hot enough?
Preheat the cup. If necessary descale the machine – refer to the section “Descaling the machine”.
Why does the machine switch itself off suddenly when it is used intensively?
If used intensively, the machine may switch itself off as protection against overheating. In this case,
allow the machine to cool down for approximately 30 minutes before using it again.
What happens if I lose or break a part of the coffee machine?
Where can I obtain suitable cleaner and descaler?
Only liquid cleaning and descaling solution (not tablets) should be used in the K-fee System machine.
For more information and availability, call the K-fee System Hot-Line on 1800 469 373 or send an
How often should I descale the machine?
We recommend that you descale your machine approximately once a month or as required. The fre-
quency depends on the water hardness and how frequently the machine is used. Never use vinegar,
vinegar cleaners or citric acid as they can result in damage to the machine. Only use a descaling
solution (not tablets).

Safety Instructions
If you fail to comply with the operating
instructions and safety instructions, the
machine may become dangerous to operate.
Please keep the operating instructions in a
safe place.
Do not start the machine if it is damaged or
if it does not work properly. In this case im-
mediately unplug the mains plug from the
wall socket and call the K-fee System Service
Hotline.
The machine is designed and manufactured for
domestic use. The manufacturer assumes no
liability for consequences arising from com-
mercial use, use not in compliance with its
intended purpose or noncompliance with the

make hot drinks as stipulated in the operat-
ing instructions. The machine is intended for
domestic use, for use in rest rooms in offices,
businesses and other work facilities, on farms,
for guests in hotels, motels and other accom-
modation or in bed and breakfast amenities.
The machine may only be used for its intended
purpose.
In case of long periods of absence, vacation
etc., the machine must be emptied, rinsed and

from the socket.
The mains voltage must match the specifica-
tions on the nameplate. Only plug the machine
to a grounded 3-pin wall socket.
