If your Philips/Saeco espresso machine's “empty coffee grounds container” sign remains on, there might be a simple cause. Read along for tips and tricks.
Troubleshooting
My Philips/Saeco espresso "empty coffee grounds container" sign remains on
Always empty the coffee grounds drawer with the machine turned ON
If the coffee grounds drawer is emptied while the machine is turned off, the coffee cycle counter is not reset and the message will not disappear.
Do not put the coffee grounds drawer back too quickly
Wait about 5 seconds before you place the coffee grounds drawer back into the machine.
