The red triangle light keeps flashing after descaling

Q: The red triangle light keeps flashing after descaling

If the red triangle light keeps flashing after descaling your ILLY X7.1, it usually means that the rinsing procedure was not completed correctly. Here’s how to resolve the issue: Check and restart the rinsing cycle Empty and thoroughly clean the water tank Fill it with 1 liter of fresh water up to the maximum level Ensure that a container of at least 1 liter is placed under the group and steam wand Press the button once to start the rinsing cycle (duration: 3 minutes) Wait for the cycle to be fully completed Multiple rinsing cycles If the light continues to flash after the first rinsing cycle, repeat the operation 2 to 3 times in a row with fresh water each time. This eliminates any residue from the descaler that may be detected by the sensor. Check that descaling was complete Make sure you held down the power button for 4 beeps (3 short sounds and 1 long) to properly trigger the descaling cycle, and that the cycle lasted its full duration of about 14 minutes. If the problem persists If the red triangle light continues to flash even after several complete rinsing cycles, the sensor may require calibration. Contact ILLY customer service for a check or maintenance of the detection system.

Question

Accepted Answer

If the red triangle light keeps flashing after descaling your ILLY X7.1, it usually means that the rinsing procedure was not completed correctly. Here’s how to resolve the issue:

Check and restart the rinsing cycle

Empty and thoroughly clean the water tank
Fill it with 1 liter of fresh water up to the maximum level
Ensure that a container of at least 1 liter is placed under the group and steam wand
Press the button once to start the rinsing cycle (duration: 3 minutes)
Wait for the cycle to be fully completed

Multiple rinsing cycles

If the light continues to flash after the first rinsing cycle, repeat the operation 2 to 3 times in a row with fresh water each time. This eliminates any residue from the descaler that may be detected by the sensor.

Check that descaling was complete

Make sure you held down the power button for 4 beeps (3 short sounds and 1 long) to properly trigger the descaling cycle, and that the cycle lasted its full duration of about 14 minutes.

If the problem persists

If the red triangle light continues to flash even after several complete rinsing cycles, the sensor may require calibration. Contact ILLY customer service for a check or maintenance of the detection system.
