Frequently Asked Questions - Tassimo My Way 2 TAS6507 BOSCH

What to do if the appliance does not turn on?

First check that the appliance is properly plugged into a mains socket. If no LED is lit, press the Start/Stop button to exit standby mode. If the problem persists, unplug the mains plug, wait 5 minutes and plug it back in.

Why does the brewing not start?

Make sure a T DISC is inserted correctly (printed side down with the tab in the slot). Check that the barcode is clean and readable. If the brewing system is not closed properly, clean the lock and press until it clicks into place.

How to clean the Tassimo machine?

Clean the water tank, brewing system and spout regularly with a soft damp cloth. Use the orange service T DISC for a cleaning cycle (refer to the 'First use' chapter in the manual).

When and how to descale the appliance?

Descale as soon as the calc light turns on or flashes. Use only Bosch descaling tablets (ref. TCZ6004 or TCZ6008). Do not use descaler containing phosphoric acid. Follow the steps in the 'Descaling' chapter in the manual.

What to do if the 'Fill water tank' light remains on even though there is enough water?

The float in the tank may be stuck. Clean the water tank and free the float. If the problem persists, check that the tank is correctly placed and descale the appliance if necessary.

Why does the drink not flow?

Check that the water tank is in place and the float is not stuck. Run a cleaning cycle with the orange service T DISC to purge air from the system. If the problem persists, descale the appliance.

How to adjust the drink size?

Before starting brewing, use the drink size buttons (☐-☐-☐) to select the desired volume. During preparation, you can stop by pressing Start/Stop for a smaller volume, or hold it down for a larger volume until the desired amount.

What to do if the brewing system does not close?

Check that the piercing crown and T DISC holder are properly inserted. If the T DISC is damaged, replace it. Clean the lock with a soft damp cloth. Press firmly until it clicks audibly into place.

What does the descaling (calc) light on or flashing mean?

This indicates that descaling is necessary. Even with decalcified water, deposits can form. Use the recommended descaling tablets and follow the procedure in the manual to avoid damage.

Where to find spare parts and accessories?

You can order parts from Bosch customer service at www.bosch-home.com or www.tassimo.com. Main references: Orange service T DISC (17001491), descaling tablets (TCZ6004/TCZ6008) and BRITA MAXTRA+ filter (17000917).

Important Information

■ Always store spare filter cartridges sealed in the original packaging in a cool dry place.
■ The BRITA MAXTRA+ Universal water filter cartridge is designed for use only with municipally treated tap water (note: this water is constantly controlled and according to legal regulations safe to drink) or with water from private supplies that has been tested as safe to drink. If an instruction is received from the authorities that mains water must be boiled, the BRITA filtered water must also be boiled. When the instruction to boil water is no longer in force, the entire coffee machine must be cleaned and a new cartridge inserted.

■ Please filter cold tap water only.
■ Clean the unit (water tank and funnel) regularly.

■ For certain groups of people (e.g. those with impaired immunity and for babies), it is generally recommended that tap water should be boiled; this also applies to filtered water. Irrespective of the water used, you should use utensils with stainless steel. This product of our BRITA partner meets these requirements. In particular, people who are sensitive to nickel should use appliances with elements made of stainless steel.

■ For reasons of hygiene, the MAXTRA+ Universal cartridge contents are subject to special treatment with silver. A very small amount of silver may be transferred to the water. This transference would be within the World Health Organisation (WHO).
■ During the filtering process, there may be a slight increase in potassium content. However, one litre of BRITA filtered water contains less potassium than e.g. an apple. If you have kidney disease and/or follow a potassium-restricted diet we recommend that you consult your doctor before using a BRITA water filter. Or call BRITACare Customer Service on [phone] for further information.
■ Should your TASSIMO by Bosch machine not be used for a prolonged period (e.g. holiday), we recommend that you discard any water left inside the water tank and leave the cartridge inside the funnel. Before using the machine again, take out the cartridge, clean the water tank and funnel thoroughly, and flush the cartridge as described in the TASSIMO by Bosch instructions for use.
■ BRITA filtered water is dedicated for human consumption. It is a perishable food and as such please consume within one day.
■ Like each natural product, the consistency of the BRITA MAXTRA+ Micro Carbon Pearls is subject to natural variances. This can lead to a slight abrasion of small carbon particles into your filtered water, noticeable as black bits. These particles have no negative health effects. If ingested, they will not harm the human body. In case you observe carbon particles, BRITA recommends to flush the cartridge several times or until the black bits disappear.
■ BRITA cannot accept responsibility or liability if you do not respect our recommendations for the use and exchange of the BRITA filter cartridge.
