1 cup coffee: 5 oz.

All four settings can be re-programmed to your personal preferences (see chapter 9d)

•The grinder can be set during grinding to grind approximately between 5 and 9 seconds, producing a milder or stronger coffee beverage (see chapter 9b)

•The water hardness is set to level 2. If softer or harder water is used, the hardness can be changed (see chapters 14a, 14b).

•The Auto-Off feature is set to 2 hours after last use. See chapter 8b how to change the Auto-Off setting.

6.PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME

•Make sure all accessories, literature and any other items are removed from the bean container and the water tank.

•DO NOT install the Clearyl Blue water filter now (chapter 15a).

•Make sure the machine sits on an even, flat surface and the drawer and used coffee container are inserted (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).

•Plug in machine.

6a. FILLING THE WATER TANK

Please note: Only use fresh, cold water. Never fill water tank with carbonated water, milk or any other liquid.

•Remove the water tank (Fig. 7), rinse and fill with cold water.

•Replace water tank and make sure that it engages securely. We recommend to fill the water tank each day with fresh, cold water. This will improve the flavor of your coffee.

6b. FILLING THE BEAN CONTAINER

Please note: To ensure that the conical burr grinder continues to

function properly, please avoid using any kind of coated or flavored beans (all coating and flavors contain sugar or sugar substances). Such coating can damage the burrs. Using such beans voids the warranty. Have your coffee store grind the sugar coated beans and use as described in chapter 9f.

Flavored Coffee: If you like flavored coffees we recommend adding flavors to your coffee after brewing. This way you can use your regular coffee beans in the bean container. Adding the flavors after brewing lets you control the flavor intensity much better than with pre-flavored coffee. Your local coffee store typically carries a variety of liquid flavors.

Frozen Beans: Thaw 3 to 4 hours before adding to bean container. This prevents moisture from seeping into the grinder.

Oily Beans: Beans with an oily surface tend to stick together. This may prevent a continuous flow of beans from the bean container into the burrs. As a result the grinder does not grind enough coffee and you might get weak or no coffee at all. Stir the beans in the bean container just before grinding. Alternatively, you can also pour the beans into an open bowl and let them sit for about 5 hours. The oils will evaporate (this will not change the taste of your coffee). Then fill the beans into the bean grinder. Now beans will feed into the burrs more easily.

•Open the lid for the bean container and remove the Aroma Protection Lid.

•Make sure the bean container is empty and clean. Fill beans into the bean container (Fig. 5).

6c. TURNING THE MACHINE ON FOR THE FIRST TIME Make sure bean container and water tank are filled.

• Switch the Main Power Switch (Fig. 1a) in the back of the

C5, 69005 specifications

The Capresso 69005 C5 is a sophisticated drip coffee maker that elevates the home brewing experience. With its elegant design and user-friendly features, it stands out in the crowded market of coffee makers. One of the main attractions of the C5 is its innovative brewing technology, which ensures that each cup of coffee is brewed to perfection.

At the core of the C5 is its unique brewing system that utilizes a sealed brewing chamber. This design allows for optimal extraction of flavors from coffee grounds, resulting in a rich and aromatic brew. The C5 is equipped with a stainless steel water tank that holds up to 10 cups of water, ensuring you have enough for multiple servings without constant refilling. A built-in filtration system also helps to enhance the water quality, further improving the overall taste of your coffee.

The C5's user interface is intuitive, featuring a digital display that makes it easy to select brewing preferences. You can customize the brew strength to suit your taste, whether you prefer a bold or milder cup of coffee. Additionally, the programmable timer allows you to set the machine to start brewing at your desired time, ensuring you wake up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee.

Another impressive characteristic of the Capresso C5 is its thermal carafe. Unlike traditional glass carafes, the stainless steel thermal carafe keeps coffee hot for hours without the need for a hot plate, which can alter the flavor over time. This means you can enjoy your coffee at the ideal temperature long after it has been brewed.

Safety features are also built into the C5, including an automatic shut-off function that turns the machine off after a period of inactivity. This not only saves energy but also provides peace of mind for users.

In terms of maintenance, the Capresso C5 is designed for easy cleaning. The water tank and carafe are dishwasher safe, making it convenient to maintain.
