15b. AUTOMATIC FILTER REPLACEMENT

The filter is monitored automatically. After approx. 60 liters of water (~2,000 oz.) the MESSAGE light and the CLEARYL light (Fig. 3a) illuminate, indicating that it is time to change the filter. Important: Once the filter has lost its calcium suppressing abilities, calcium will build up inside the machine. Since the Water Hardness Selector is off, the machine will not remind you when to decalcify. If the filter is not replaced, the calcium build-up will clog and damage your machine.

1.Remove the water tank and the old filter. Make sure the water tank is empty.

2.Remove a new cartridge from its bag, rinse under running water and insert in water tank.

3.Close the cartridge holder. Make sure it snaps into place.

4.Fill the water tank with water and replace.

5.Push and hold the CLEARYL button until its light blinks.

6.Place a 20 oz. container under the steam nozzle.

7.Turn the SELECTOR to the Water symbol.

The C5 pumps water through the cartridge and out through the steam nozzle for approximately 60 seconds. Initially, the water may be discolored. The program will stop automatically.

8. Turn the SELECTOR back to the Cup symbol.

The RINSE symbol blinks, indicating the machine is heating up.

15c. MANUAL FILTER REPLACEMENT

If the filter is more than 2 months old and the display does not indicate to replace filter, replace as follows.

Your machine is turned off, but in stand-by mode. Only the ON symbol is visible. Now follow the instructions in chapter 15b, steps 1– 8.

15d. DO NOT LET THE CLEARYL BLUE FILTER DRY OUT

If the filter is not immersed in water, the granular center will dry out and block any water from passing through.

If machine is not used for a few days, leave some water in the water tank so the filter will not dry out. Upon using the machine again, fill the water tank with fresh water and process approx. 2 oz. of water through the hot water spout.

If the machine will not be used for a longer period of time, empty the water container and remove the Clearyl Blue filter. Fill a glass with at least 2 inches of water and immerse the filter.

Place the glass in the refrigerator.

When you use the machine again, install the filter. Activation is not necessary.

16. AUTOMATIC MONITORING

The machine has built-in systems to automatically monitor all vital functions, such as

filling the water tank (chapter 16a),

emptying the used coffee container (chapter 16b),

filling beans (chapter 16c),

replacing the Clearyl Blue water cartridge (chapter 15b),

cleaning program with special tablet to remove internal coffee oil build-up (chapter 17).

Whenever the MESSAGE LIGHT lights up or blinks, open the ACCESS door. One of the red lights will also be on or blinking, indicating the cause for the message.

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.
