Opening seized (?) brewing unit on AEG CF 220?

After cleaning brewing unit following instructions in user manual (though white lever mentioned does not seem to exist - big red contraption to be rotated to open) the cleaning light was still flashing. Removed brewing unit again but now not possible to open; seems to be jammed somehow and cannot rotate red thing. Also, when reinserting the brewing unit the black plastic 'fork' at the front sticks out too far and the service panel cannot be closed. As the red rotating mechanism (two parts and a spring) was retained only with a small circlip I removed it in case this was jamming but even with this removed the brewing unit cannot be opened. Cannot find a service manual anywhere (except a USA service asking for $50; too much without knowing if it would help) to see what can be jamming. Any suggestions? Thanks, RL

I have a AEG CF220 coffee machine but the brewing unit seems to be out of line, when it goes through a cycle it does not sit directly beneath the filler so half the coffee goes on top of the brewer and the water also goes into the waste dipenser, any ideas?

I have I complete instruction on how to clean the brewing unit and which state it should be in before you try to insert it back in the machine. That was not the reason the machine showed you the cleaning light though. The cleaning light implies descaling - also a pretty complicated task without a manual.

Kind regards
