Possible Causes

Scale too heavy to clear in one cycle, blocked outlet nozzle, faulty descaling program sensor input, user interrupted cycle

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug and allow the unit to cool before handling hot parts.

  • Repeat descaling: Prepare fresh descaling solution and run the descaling program again from the beginning, following the manual exactly.
  • Clean outlet nozzle: Inspect the coffee outlet or drip head for blockages. Clean with a soft brush or a pin, taking care not to enlarge any holes.
  • Do not interrupt: Ensure the machine remains powered and supplied with water throughout the entire descaling cycle.
  • Service if persistent: If E08 recurs even after multiple descaling attempts, internal scale buildup may be severe or a sensor in the descaling circuit may be faulty, requiring professional service.
