DeLonghi fully automatic coffee machine troubleshooting

Unfortunately, DeLonghi machines (fully automatic coffee machines, portafilter machines, etc.) do not have standardized error symbols. More specifically, the symbols themselves are the same on many models, but they do not always mean the same thing. For example, if the water jug light comes on, this means that the water tank is not inserted correctly on Magnifica and Dinamica machines. On La Specialista machines, it means that water needs to be refilled.

So if the alarm lights on your DeLonghi are flashing or lit up, you need to look for information about your specific model. We have put together a few links here to make your search easier.

Look at the Type on the bottom plate: Does it say ESAM, ECAM, or ETAM?
