Troubleshooting Problem: Solution: Brewer does not have power. Brewer will not brew. Plug Brewer into an independent outlet. Make sure the Brewer is securely plugged in. Plug into a different outlet. Reset your home's circuit breaker. Confirm the power has been turned on and the LCD is illuminated. Every once in a while an air bubble may get trapped in the water path. Lift off the reservoir, then put it back into place. Turn off and unplug the brewer for 30 seconds or more. When you plug the brewer back in, be sure to turn the power back on. Make sure the water reservoir is properly in place, and perform a Rinse cycle. After placing the K-Cup® in the K-Cup® Holder, make sure the handle is pushed down securely and the LCD control panel reads READY. The and buttons, Brew, Hot Water, and Rinse buttons will be illuminated. Then press any of the lit buttons. If the LCD control panel indicates ADD WATER, check to make sure the water reservoir is properly filled. If not, add water. If so, make sure the water reservoir is properly seated in its base. If the LCD control panel indicates ADD WATER even after refilling and checking the base, contact Customer Service at 1-800-726-0190. The exit needle may be clogged (refer to page 19). Chlorine or mineral taste in coffee. Consider using bottled water, filtered water or the Cuisinart Charcoal Water Filter. Doesn't brew a full cup. Every once in a while an air bubble may get trapped in the water path. Lift off the reservoir, then put it back into place. Turn off and unplug the brewer for 30 seconds or more. When you plug the brewer back in, be sure to turn the power back on. The exit needle may be clogged (refer to "Cleaning & Maintenance" page 18). Clean the K-Cup® holder brewing chamber (refer to "Cleaning & Maintenance" page 18). The time is not displayed on the LCD control panel. Brewer shuts off, or turns on, automatically. Make sure the water reservoir is properly in place, and perform a Rinse cycle. De-scale the Brewer (refer to page 20). If you have repeated the de-scale procedure two times and it is still only brewing a partial cup, contact Customer Service at 1-800-726-0190. You must set the clock (refer to page 15) in order for the time to be displayed on the LCD. If power is interrupted to the Brewer, you will need to re-set the clock (refer to page 15). Make sure the Auto Off and the On/Off time features have not been set. To do this, press the Menu button and scroll through the programming options. OFF should be displayed for Auto Off timer and On/Off. If OFF is not displayed, you must reset (refer to page 15). The blue light in the water reservoir is flashing. Coffee is too weak or watery. This indicates the water level in the reservoir is low and water must be added (refer to page 14) in order to brew a full cup. Reduce the brew size for a stronger-tasting cup of coffee (refer to "Programming Your Brew Size" on page 18). Try an Extra Bold K-Cup®. It has 30% more ground coffee in each portion pack. 21
