Hi
You could have a micro switch in the doser that is going bad and needs to be replaced. They are a special micro switch that is very sensitive and can get stuck with a little coffee dust inside the switch.
What does ventilate mean?
Hi,
"Ventilate" simply means that there is an air pocket caught in the
system and running water through it can fix the problem. When the
ventilate message appears, you will need to run hot water through your
steam/hot water wand as if you were going to fill your cup with hot
water. If the message does not go away after doing so, you will have to
run hot water through your wand continuously into an empty container
(emptying one full water reservoir if not more). Once your display
screen reads "Select Product, ready for use," you will be ready to brew
delicious coffee again.
Let me know, if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
Message saying Decalcify
Located on page 26 of this PDF are the instructions for descaling the unit. Please follow the suggestions contained herein as you are running a cleaning solution through your coffee maker. A NON-TOXIC cleaner is highly suggested. Here is the link to the PDF. Good luck

Coffee is not strong enough?
Hi
There are 2 knobs in the bean hopper. Turn the small one to the + then back up 1 click. Turn the large knob to a smaller number, but only when it is grinding. The grind should look like coarse granulated sugar. It takes 3 cycles for the grind to take effect.

Hi
If you are talking about the descale light, you must let the machine quit on its own. The pump has to stop on its own. Any interruption (you stopping the machine) will keep it in the descale mode. Once it stops on its own, the lights will change. Then do the rinse by replacing the water in the tank and closing and then reopening the steam knob and again letting the machine quit on its own. Again the lights will change. Then repeat the last cycle (putting water in the tank and closing and then reopening the steam knob)until all the red lights go away and you only have a green blinking light. Now your finished descaling a compact without a digital display.
After decalcifying I have started
I cannot view the comments of the expert who recommended replacing the seals. I assume the replacement for seals and O rings is required only if the unit is leaking water or steam.
I don't think replacing seals can be done without proper tools and expertise. Best left to the technician. This is a reasonably sophisticated equipment.
I understand that during descaling of this unit you have to exercise a lot of caution and use the right ingredients and follow the instructions carefully. Not sure whether you ran the descaling as part of regular maintenance or if the unit had a message for you to run the descaling.
Fuse in the power outlet must be tripping either because the machine is causing an electric leakage (which will trip the earth leakage detector) or the motor is drawing too much current and tripping the circuit fuse.
One option might be to restore the machine to factory default settings (page 36 of manual) and see if you can then select the Rinse cycle after cleaning and refilling the water tank. (at item 8 of section 11 )
do post a comment if you are either able to replace the seals as suggested by other expert or repeat the rinse process.
