The 4-way valve manages the incoming water, indicates the correct value to the pressure gauge, and directs the water to the portafilter for coffee dispensing or to the steam outlet tap, depending on the function selected by the user. It also serves as a portafilter holder; the 3 bayonet guides at the bottom are essential for properly housing the filter holder inside.\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003eSymptoms, what problems can a faulty under-cup group cause?\u003cbr\/\u003eReport any error codes in addition to Q\u0026A\u003cbr\/\u003eQUESTION: Why can't I mount the portafilter on my Delonghi Classic?\u003cbr\/\u003eANSWER: Some coffee residue may have solidified in the under-cup guides.
