ToggleSwitch it off and wait 10 minutes
Sometimes, if your coffee maker is still new and has water sitting in it for a long time, or if you have just cleaned it, you might see an error message saying that there is no water.
This is because coffee makers need to be properly primed before you start using them.
The way they do that is by using a heating element to heat up their water reservoirs (this warms up your machine), then turning off automatically when they’re ready.
Just turning them off and waiting 10 minutes will often solve the problem.
Afterward, turn it back on, pour some water into it and try again! If for some reason it doesn’t work after doing that, try the next steps mentioned below.
Reset the clock, then brew a cup of coffee
Check to make sure all of your connections are properly secured and tight. Even a half-turn can cause problems with appliances that use electricity, and it is important to remember not to force any connection into place.
You may need a new plug for an appliance that’s been in service for many years if you are having trouble getting power to it—don’t assume anything!
Many older appliances have worn or damaged wiring that can cause issues in areas with lots of trees, overhead lighting, etc.
Turn it off and on again
The next logical step is to turn your coffee maker off and then back on again. This works with many small appliances and just might clear up whatever issue you’re experiencing.
In some cases, a reset button or power button will be present to make it easier.
If not, try to turn it off at its power source (i.e., unplugging it) and then plug it back in afterward.
If that doesn’t work, try turning off your home’s circuit breaker for a few minutes, if applicable, before returning power to it and trying again.
You could also try using another outlet for testing purposes if you think yours is causing issues for your appliance.
Use The Smart Settings Feature
The Smart Settings feature makes it easy to set coffee to brew at a certain time, or when you arrive home.
If you have your coffee maker set up properly and cleaned regularly, it will work perfectly. If you are not sure how to clean your coffee maker, then read our tips above.
Once cleaned, just push a few buttons on your machine and let it do its job! You will wake up in the morning and enjoy a hot cup of delicious coffee with zero hassle.
The Smart Settings feature even has an auto-off function that turns off your coffeemaker after two hours of non-use; it’ll save energy while ensuring that no one forgets about their fresh pot waiting for them in the morning!
Check all connections
Make sure that all of your connections are tight and firmly plugged in. Make sure you didn’t miss a spot! If possible, try testing it by plugging it into a different outlet or power strip to make sure you didn’t accidentally unplug something.
Your coffee maker will not work without a functioning electrical connection, so it’s important to have everything set up properly before continuing.
Clean it up
The coffee maker may be plugged in and turned on, but if it still doesn’t make coffee, try cleaning it out. Over time, calcium deposits can build up around your machine’s heating element.
These deposits can block water from flowing through as it should, resulting in weak coffee or no coffee at all. Follow these steps to fix a clogged Cuisinart brew basket
