I set up the machine for cleaning (with tablets and water in the back) but when I hold the power button along with the 1 and 2 cup power buttons

The machine makes noise like it’s on but no water comes out. I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong

Hello, thank you for using Howly.
May I have the brand and model of your machine?

I set up my Breville Espresso coffe machine for cleaning, filling the water tank, inserting the cleaning tablet etc. But when I hold the power button along with the 1 and 2 cup buttons, the machine makes intermittant noises like it's working but no water comes out. What am I doing wrong?
It's Breville. I don't see a model. It's about 4-5 years old.

Got it! Thank you!
I assumed you pressed and hold the power button along with the 1 and 2 cup buttons for 3 seconds and the machine starts cleaning. Please note that the cycle takes approximately 5 minutes and your machine will go on and off while this process. You did everything right!

Customer Replay

I did that.

Okay, got it!

The cleaning does not start.

But I need you to tell me what happened when you pressed and hold the power button along with the 1 and 2 cup buttons for 3 seconds.

Customer Replay

The lights are all on but nothing happens.

Okay, got it!
Please, try to press the '1-Cup,' '2-Cup,' and the 'Steam' buttons simultaneously, holding them in for five seconds. The 1- and 2-cup buttons will illuminate. Next, press the '2-Cup' button to begin the cleaning cycle.

Customer Replay

Just a minute and I'll respond.

Take your time!

The water came into the tray. I thought I remembered it coming through the portafilter the last time I did this. If it comes directly into the tray, how does the tablet get dissolved?

Please, tell me where you put the tablet.

Customer Replay

In the portafilter. it's gone now so I guess everything worked.

Okay, got it!
