Frequently Asked Questions - TASSIMO TAS1104 BOSCH

Why won't my device turn on and the LEDs do not light up?

Check that the device is properly plugged into an electrical outlet. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

What to do if the drink does not flow after starting brewing?

Check that the water tank is fully pushed in until it stops. If there is air in the system, run the cleaning program with the service T DISC.

Use TCZ6004 descaling tablets. Follow the instructions: fill the water tank, add the tablet, run the descaling program (see manual fig. 44-58).

Clean the reading window with a soft damp cloth, flatten the T DISC film. If the problem persists, use a new T DISC or contact TASSIMO support.

Check that the piercing crown and the T DISC holder are correctly placed. Make sure the T DISC is properly positioned, printed side down, and that the tab is in the notch.

Water is flowing under the cup support, is this normal?
