Make sure the water tank is filled and securely positioned before removing any capsules.
To try a system flush, try lifting and reinstalling the tank and then pressing a coffee button without a capsule. To get rid of trapped air, you may need to repeat this two or three times.
Do a manual reset if the red light keeps blinking. Press and hold the espresso button after turning off the machine and opening the lever. Turn the machine back on while you're holding it.
Alternatively, while the device is powered on, push both of the top coffee buttons. Hold down the button until the red light stops flashing or a beep indicates that the reset is finished.
If the issue persists, it may be a sensor malfunction or a clogged internal component.
