What does Rancilio error code W07 mean?
The Classe 11 stores its settings, such as doses, temperatures and options, in the control. W07 Check data means the control wants those settings looked at. The manual's wording is brief: the control asks you to check the data. It lists W07 among the warnings, which are messages that ask for attention and not a breakdown of a part. A setting that has been changed by mistake, data that was not saved or does not match, or a board that has been replaced and not set up again could all produce a request to check the data. The manual does not say which data. The sensible step is to compare the machine's settings with the values you expect, correct them if they are wrong, and tell the technician if you are unsure. Because the edition we read does not list which data is meant, a technician has the service documentation to compare against. It is helpful to note what was changed in the settings recently, and whether the machine lost power while a setting was being saved.
