You need to chck the water reservoir if it in place properly, rmove it and put back in place again. The you need to turn the hot water knob to draw some water out, this will revove the ventilate massage.

SOURCE: my coffee machine says decalcify

For ventilate:
When it says to ventilate, it is asking you to prime the pump. Put acup under the panarello wand ( the steamer/frother) to catch thedischarged water and press the hot water button (upper left button onmy machine). Wait until air stops coming out with the water, usually3-5 ounces, and then press the hot water button again.

You machine is now ventilated (primed) and should be ready to go.

For decalcify:

Recommend downloading and following these directions.

Hi
There is a water button you need to push. It has a water drop on it. This will clear the ventilate message.

SOURCE: My saeco magic coffee machine says ventilate.How

Hi
If it is just a Magic Delux, open the steam knob, without pushing the steam button. If its a Magic Comfort you have to push the button with the drops on it and it will flow water.

Testimonial: " any thanks for your help. I pressed the button on the machine and now ir works again."

SOURCE: ventilate message

Hi
Push the water button (the one with the drops) and that will clear the message. The pump slows to much and the flow meter doesn't spin fast enough, the computer thinks the pump is bad. If your coffee is taking too long to brew, then you grind is too fine. Move the lever to a larger #.

Testimonial: "Thx, but my Royal exclusive is an older model and I have no water button on it. Any other idea ?"

SOURCE: The screen says to Ventilate. I fill the water

Hi
You might have a restriction or blockage in the brew head. This is from fine coffee residue and oils that will build up in the passages of the brew unit. To fix.
Remove the brew unit. Holding the handle, on the top left side is the brew head, there is an outlet pipe that exits the front side towards the door (looks like a long "L" pipe). 2 screws hold it to the top. Remove the 2 screws while holding the manifold ("L" pipe assembly). Once they are removed, lift the l assembly off (be careful, there is an O-ring, spring and at the end a black rubber disk or crystal ball). Do this over a towel to prevent loosing small pieces, mainly the crystal ball.
Now remove the brew screen, by holding the screen with your finger and twisting the thumbscrew (remember, thumbscrew), DON'T use the key to install the screen, use your fingers.
Once the screen is out, look at where the screen was. There are 2 holes. A big one in the center and a small one to the side.
With the brew unit upside down over the towel, insert a paperclip into the small hole and force anything out the other side. I have gotten worms almost a 1" long from this passage. The paper clip has to go from this side to prevent damage to the seat on the other side.
Clean then reassemble. Brew unit on towel right side up. Drop the crystal ball in first. Then the spring small end first on the crystal ball.
Now the O-ring over the spring, then place the manifold on top of that with the pipe towards the machine. Insert your screws (I turn them backwards a little with a little downward pressure until they feel like they drop into the threads. They should turn down easily, if not back them up a little more ( we are trying to find the old threads) and tighten. Install screen, and tighten with your fingers. The screen just needs to be flush with the bottom of the brew head. That should do it.

Testimonial: "Works perfectly now. Thank you"
