What GROUND TOO FINE
actually means.
The message spells out its own fix: move the grinding dial one click toward 7 while the mill is turning. Fisher & Paykel adds a second cause for owners with the water softener filter fitted: an air bubble from the filter can block the circuit, which is cleared by running hot water. If neither helps, the tank may not be fully in.

What to do when GROUND TOO FINE shows on the coffee machineKind of codeGrinder and beans
The grinder ran and too little came through, or it did not run at all: the hopper is empty, an oily or flavored bean is bridging over the burrs, a small stone or a clump has jammed them, or the burrs themselves are worn so the grind has turned coarse. Topping up with dry, plain beans and letting the machine try again clears most of it; a grinder that clicks, hums or stays silent with a full hopper needs its burrs and motor checked.
Usually leads toCoffee machine grinder repair
Clearing and renewing the burr grinder: jammed beans, a stone between the burrs, worn burrs, and the motor and gearbox that turn them.
Shows up asWhat a Coffee Machine Error Code or Warning Symbol Means
A coffee machine error code may show as a short string of letters and numbers, a flashing symbol for water, grounds or the brew unit, a short sentence on a text display, or a machine that stops with one light blinking.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Fisher & Paykel's own guidance for GROUND TOO FINE on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Start a coffee and, while the mill is running, turn the grinding dial one click clockwise toward 7.
Make at least two coffees before judging, then move another click if delivery is still slow.
If you use the water softener filter, run hot water through the spout until the flow is steady.
Check the tank is fully inserted; if the message keeps coming back, book a visit.

What not to do
GROUND TOO FINE does not mean the grinder has stopped; a stopped grinder with beans in the container is a service matter. It is also not cleared by turning the dial with the mill at rest.
