16a. FILL WATER

When the MESSAGE LIGHT and the FILL WATER light blink, no more coffee can be made until you fill the water container. The water container will never be completely empty. The low water floatation device (Fig. 7.4) activates the above message when there is about 10 oz. of water left.

•Remove water tank, rinse and fill with fresh water and replace. The above message will turn off and you can make coffee again.

16b. EMPTY TRAY / EMPTY GROUNDS

When the MESSAGE light and the EMPTY TRAY light blink, no more coffee can be made until the tray is removed and emptied.

•Carefully lift and remove drawer since there is water in it (Fig. 17). Important: Do not unplug the machine while you are emptying the coffee grounds.

•Empty the used coffee container and the drawer.

•Push the drawer back into the machine (Fig. 18).

•Place the used coffee container on the tray and insert back

into the machine (Fig. 19).

The above message will turn off and you can make coffee again.

16c. FILL BEANS

When the MESSAGE light and the FILL BEANS light blink, open the bean container lid and add beans (Fig. 5).

Please note: This message will disappear after making the next cup of coffee.

Attention: If the message appears and there are ample beans in the bean container, stir the beans so they flow into the grinder (chapter 6b). We recommend cleaning the bean container from time to time with a dry cloth before you refill beans (please make sure the machine is turned off when cleaning).

16d. STONES AND BEANS

Every coffee specialty store will tell you that occasionally small stones can be found in with coffee beans. Small stones will be processed through the burr grinder without any harm (the stone will end up in the used coffee container).

However larger stones can block the burr grinder. The noise of the grinder will become very loud and the grinder will block. In this case please call our Customer Service: 1-800-220-5701.

Before Filling Beans into the Bean Container:

•Shake your bean bag thoroughly so that a stone will fall to the bottom of the bag.

•Before emptying the bean bag completely, check if there are any particles that look like stones and remove them.

16e. GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Never use abrasive materials or chemicals to clean the machine.

•Clean the housing with a soft, damp cloth.

•Rinse water tank daily and fill with fresh, cold water.

17. CLEANING WITH SPECIAL TABLET

The machine monitors how many coffees are brewed and how often the rinsing program is activated. After approx. 200 coffees the MESSAGE light and the CLEANING light (Fig. 3a) will illuminate. It is time to perform a tablet cleaning cycle.

This cleaning program will remove oil build-ups in the brewing chamber. The cleaning program takes about 15 minutes. Please note: You can continue making coffee, however we highly recommend that you clean the machine as described below within the next few days. Please use one of the two white cleaning tablets (Fig. 1,16). To order more tablets see chapter 20.

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. Its customizable features, thermal carafe, and easy maintenance make it a practical addition to any kitchen. Whether you are brewing for yourself or entertaining guests, the C5 ensures a delightful coffee experience every time.
