Integrated descaling programme
CAUTION: If the descaling operation is interrupted, there may be damage to the machine and residue in the water. Allow the descaling programme to run to the end.
It is possible to start the descaling programme of your IMPRESSA J9 in two ways:
- Descaling after a prompt:
Precondition: COFFEE READY / DECALCIFY MACHINE is displayed. Press the illuminated Maintenance button, DECALCIFY DURATION 45 MIN. / START YES is displayed. Press the Maintenance button. EMPTY TRAY appears. Empty the drip tray and coffee grounds container and put them back into the machine. SOLVENT IN TANK appears on the display. Remove and empty the water tank. Completely dissolve the contents of one blister (three JURA descaling tablets) in a receptacle with 500 ml of water. Pour the solution into the empty water tank and insert it into the machine. SOLVENT IN TANK / PRESS RINSE appears on the display. Remove the cappuccino frother. Place a receptacle (at least 500 ml) under the connector of the cappuccino frother. Press the Maintenance button. DECALCS appears on the display. The operation stops automatically. Empty the receptacle under the connector of the cappuccino frother, the drip tray and the coffee grounds container and insert them back into the machine. RINSE WATER TANK / FILL WATER TANK appears on the display. Remove the water tank and rinse it thoroughly. Fill the water tank with fresh, cold water and reinsert the tank. Refit the cappuccino frother and place one receptacle under the cappuccino frother and another under the coffee spout. Press the Maintenance button. DECALCS appears on the display. The descaling operation is continued. Water flows out of the frother and the coffee spout. Then follow the instructions on the display.
Note: If the descaling operation stops unexpectedly, rinse the water tank thoroughly.
- Descaling without a prompt:
Precondition: COFFEE READY is displayed. Press and hold the Rotary Switch until MAINTENANCE appears. Press the Rotary Switch again briefly. CLEAN CAPPUCCINO appears. Turn the Rotary Switch until DECALCIFY MACHINE is displayed. Pressing the Rotary Switch starts the programme. DURATION 45 MIN. / START YES appears on the display. Press the Maintenance button. EMPTY TRAY appears. Now follow the instructions as outlined under "Descaling after a prompt".
- Note: Your IMPRESSA J9 will display COFFEE READY again if no other programme item is selected in the maintenance menu within about 5 seconds.
Note: If DECALCS remains displayed for a long time, this means the descaling programme was started with too much liquid or water was replenished before the water tank was empty.
- Tip: Start the descaling programme again with 0.5 l water. All the water in the water tank is sucked out during the programme. Please do not replenish water until the display prompts you to do so.
If COFFEE READY / DECALCIFY MACHINE is displayed even though the CLARIS Blue filter cartridge is inserted, this means the machine was not changed over to using a filter in programming mode.
- Tip: Remove the filter and run the descaling programme. Then insert a new filter and change the machine over to using a filter.
