machine. The “ON” symbol (Fig. 3) illuminates, indicating that the main power switch is on.

•Push the DIAL to turn the machine on. The SELECTOR light starts blinking (Fig. 4).

•Place a cup underneath the frother (Fig. 1,12).

•Turn the SELECTOR counterclockwise to the Water symbol (Fig. 4). The machine will dispense a small amount of water through the frother into the cup. During this time the SELECTOR light is on. The water flow stops automatically. The SELECTOR light starts blinking again.

•Turn the SELECTOR clockwise to the Cup symbol. The light turns off.

•The machine heats up indicated by the blinking RINSE symbol (Fig. 3).

•When it stops blinking and is illuminated, place a large cup (8 oz.) under the coffee spouts (Fig. 1,1) and push the DIAL. The machine will rinse and pre-warm the coffee spouts with warm water. During this time the RINSE symbol blinks. After a few seconds the flow of water will stop automatically.

All eight symbols around the DIAL are now visible (Fig. 3).

•The 1-cup Espresso symbol is highlighted.

•Push the DIAL. The 1-cup Espresso symbol starts blinking, and the grinder starts grinding beans. The left DIAL light illuminates and the machine brews a first cup of coffee. It will stop automatically.

•Discard the first two cups of coffee.

Please note: It is possible during the preparation of just the first cup of coffee that the MESSAGE light (Fig. 3) blinks and no coffee will be produced. The machine has not detected enough ground coffee at this time. (When you open the Access Door

(Fig. 1,2a) the FILL BEANS light blinks (Fig. 3a).

•Just push the DIAL again to brew another cup of coffee. Important: After the brewing stops, the machine will discard the used coffee grounds into the internal used coffee coffee container (Fig. 2). Please do not try to pull out the drawer (Fig. 17-19) during coffee preparation. It can seriously damage the machine. There is no need to pull out the drawer until the machine prompts you (see chapter 6c).

Important: Do not remove drawer unless the C5 prompts you (chapter 16b). If you pull out the drawer, you must empty the used coffee container (Fig. 2,19). Otherwise too much used coffee will clog the machine and cause damage. Recommendation: With the 1-cup Espresso symbol highlighted and the other seven symbols dim, turn the DIAL slowly clockwise and see how the other symbols will be highlighted. This is how you select any of the other functions.

7. ADJUSTING THE GRINDER

You can adjust the grinder to the roast of your coffee. We recommend the following:

Light roast: use a finer adjustment.

Dark roast: use a coarser adjustment.

•Open the lid of the bean container (Fig. 1,9).

•While the grinder is running turn the grind selector to the desired position (Fig. 6).

–The smaller the dots, the finer the grind.

–The bigger the dots, the coarser the grind.

Important: The grinding grade can only be adjusted while the grinder is actually grinding.

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.

In conclusion, the Capresso 69005 C5 combines advanced brewing technology and stylish design, making it a top choice for coffee enthusiasts.
