Frequently Asked Questions - PICKYOO YOO DIGITAL

How to prepare the machine before first use?

Fill the water tank to the MAX mark (5.1 L) with cold water. Plug in and press the ON/OFF button for preheating. Place a container under the spout and run two preparation cycles without a capsule to rinse the system.

Which capsules to use with the PICKYOO machine?

Use only soft capsules with a diameter of 55 to 60 mm, thickness 6 mm, containing 6 to 7 g for a small cup or 12 to 14 g for a large cup.

How to clean the coffee machine?

Regularly clean the capsule holder and water tank with hot water. Run a preparation cycle without a capsule to clean the internal system. Do not put the machine in the dishwasher and do not immerse it.

How often should the machine be descaled?

We recommend descaling every 3 months for medium hardness (7-14 °dH). Adjust the frequency according to your water hardness: every 6 months for soft water, every 6 weeks for hard water, every 4 weeks for very hard water.

How to descale the machine?

Remove the capsules. Fill the tank with 1 L of water and a dose of descaling solution. Place a bowl under the spout. After preheating, press the small/large cup button and let it run for about 1 minute, repeat until empty. Then rinse with clean water until the water is clear and odorless.

What to do if the machine does not turn on?

Check that the plug is connected and that the voltage matches your installation. Make sure the water tank is properly in place. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

Why is the water not flowing or the coffee too weak?

Check that the water tank is filled and that the capsule is properly placed. The capsule holder must be correctly locked. Descaling may be necessary if the flow is low.

What are the available cup volumes?

The default volume is 100 ml for a single cup and 200 ml for a double cup. The preparation stops automatically at these volumes.

Is the machine safe for children?

The machine must be used out of reach of children. Do not leave the appliance unattended. The lever must be locked during operation to prevent hot water splashes. This appliance is not intended for persons (including children) with reduced capabilities without supervision.
