Philips SENSEO® Viva Café Kaffeepadmaschine - Manual (Page 27)

Problem Solution
The light
ring around
the on/off
button flashes
slowly.
You have used the SENSEO ® coffee machine at an
altitude higher than 2200 metres above sea level. This
has caused the water in the machine to start boiling
before it has reached the required temperature,
which prevents the machine from functioning
properly. Switch off the machine and no longer use it
at altitudes higher than 2200 metres above sea level.
The CALC light
flashes.
You have pressed the 1-cup button and the 2-cup
button at the same time. This started the descaling
cycle. If you did not intend to start the descaling
cycle, simply press the on/off button to switch off the
machine. If you did intend to start the descaling cycle,
do not interrupt this cycle but let the appliance
operate until the water reservoir is empty.
The CALC light
does not go out
after descaling.
The CALC light does not go out if the descaling
procedure has not been performed correctly.
To perform the descaling procedure correctly:
Make sure you start the descaling cycle by pressing
the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button at the
same time. See chapter ‘Descaling’ for a complete
description of the descaling procedure.
Make sure you do not interrupt the descaling cycle.
During the descaling cycle, hot water comes out of
the coffee spout at intervals and the machine stops
descaling 3 to 4 times to let the descaling mixture
act and to heat up again. If you press the on/off
button to interrupt this cycle, the CALC light stays
