Thank you so much! It works for the Pixie Nespresso as well.

I was having trouble with resetting after descaling. I tried to press the Lungo button for 5 seconds, over and over. Unplugged. Tried to press both buttons. And then I found the manual on line, and realized that I have to EXIT the descaling mode. To exit descaling, when the machine is on and both buttons are flashing, you press both buttons until they stop flashing. I had to press both buttons for 5 second a few times though before the lights went solid. And now it's working!

Pressing and holding both cup selection buttons until they flash quickly WORKS! Thank you

My lungo mode would flow the same time as the espresso mode after descaling, but after following these instructions it’s now working as normal. Thankyou for the video.

I had to leave the lever up for the light to stop blinking. Finally got it out of descaling mode. Thank you.

Do you have wait for the blinking before you remove your finger pressing it?

Hi, I have a problem. My Nespresso keeps twinkling the lights and never stops. This was happening before I did the steps for the reset.

Not working on my, I am holding the button but both buttons will start blinking again and machine is not working

[MeEverything]

When i press the lungo button it automatically stops?

[stefaniawadeREALESTATE]

I have the same problem. Lights will not stop blinking but i tried everything posted here and in other sites and nothing works! HELP

[sausagefingers]

So my machine started acting crazy after 3 days. I was set to return it but some new coffee (off brand) was delivered. I tried the first pod and the machine literally spit the coffee out by the lever opening and the cup flying forward! I tried again and the same thing! On the third try, an old pod (which was not mine!) just magically appeared in the bin. along with my pod. So my guess is that my machine was returned. 😏
