3a. "CREMA COFFEE" AND PRESSURE BREWING  
According to the majority of coffee experts, grinding, tamping  
10.

and brewing under high pressure is the ideal extracting process  
for maximum flavor and aroma. Your Jura-Capresso automatic  
coffee center will always produce espresso and coffee with a  
thick, foamy layer called "crema." The crema traps the fine aro-  
matics and the light gaseous flavors that register on the palate.  
The high pressure and the short brewing time prevent the  
extraction of bitter oils and release less caffeine than any other  
brewing method. You will always make the absolute freshest  
and most aromatic cup of coffee. This is the reason why many  
European restaurants and hotels serve only fresh pressured  
brewed coffee. Experiment with your new machine and prepare  
yourself the best and most enjoyable cup of coffee!  
the result of the amount of coffee in relation to the amount of  
water. The longer a bean is roasted, the less caffeine it has.  
Arabica and Robusta are two genetically different kinds of  
beans. "Arabica" beans have more flavor and a little less caffeine  
than "Robusta" beans which are mostly used in lower priced  
coffees and instant coffees.  
Espresso is not a bean, it's the way the coffee is roasted and  
prepared. Typical US espresso roasts result in darker beans with  
an oily surface. European espresso roasts are medium brown  
with no or very little oils on the surface.

4. PLEASE, DON’T... (or you void your warranty protection):  
• Never pull out the drawer during the brewing process. Only  
pull the drawer when the display instructs you or when the  
display shows COFFEE READY.  
• Never fill instant coffee into the bean container or ground coffee  
funnel; it can damage the brewing chamber.  
• Never fill sugar coated coffee beans into the bean container.  
• Never fill frozen beans into the bean container. If you store  
beans in the freezer, let them thaw 3 to 4 hours before filling  
them into the bean container.  
• Never fill anything other than coffee beans into the bean  
container (no chocolate, rice, nuts, spices, etc.)  
• Never fill anything but fresh, cold clean water into the water  
container, except when decalcifying (chapter 29).  
• Never use mineral or carbonated water. You can use tap  
water, bottled water, spring water, distilled water and reverse  
osmosis water.  
3b. DIFFERENT COFFEE DRINKS  
Here are some guidelines for the most popular coffee drinks:  
• Ristretto: 1/2 to 1 oz. of coffee. Sweeten to taste.  
• Espresso: 1 to 2 oz. coffee. Sweeten to taste.  
• Double Shot: 3 to 4 oz. of coffee. Sweeten to taste.  
• Crema Coffee: 5 to 8 oz. of coffee.  
• Cappuccino: Espresso plus 3 to 4 oz. of hot frothed milk.  
• Latte: Espresso plus 3-5 oz. steamed milk with little or no froth.  
• Café Mocha: Make Espresso then add chocolate syrup to the  
milk before frothing/steaming.  
TIP: Experiment with the size of your milk based drinks. For  
stronger coffee taste add more coffee, for more milk taste add  
more frothed milk.

drawer, tray and used coffee container are inserted (Fig.1, Fig. 2).  
• Plug-in machine.  
6a. FILLING THE WATER TANK

with carbonated water, milk or any other liquid.  
• Open the Water Tank Lid, remove the water tank, rinse and fill  
with fresh, cold water (Fig. 7).  
• Replace water tank and make sure that the two slots are  
engaged over the two hooks to secure the tank properly.  
• Close lid.  
Please note: You can change all above presets (chapter 26).

• Place a cup underneath the Dual Coffee Spouts (Fig. 1,5) and  
push the Rinse Button. The machine will pump a bit of hot  
water through the coffee spouts and will stop automatically.  
COFFEE READY  
• Open the Cover Lid (Fig.1,1).  
Please note: The cover lid is spring activated. Push slightly  
upwards on the right side finger indent and the lid will auto-  
matically open.  
• Remove the see-through Bean Container Safety Lid (Fig. 4).  
Make sure the bean container is empty and clean. Fill beans  
into the bean container. Replace the Safety Lid.  
Attention: the machine will not work without the Safety Lid in  
place. Close the Cover Lid.  
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 in an open bowl and  
let them sit for about 5 hours. The oils will evaporate (this will

cups of coffee. Your next cup will be perfect.

Z5 enough time to completely charge its internal back-up battery.  
When fully charged, the internal battery will back up the clock for  
up to eight weeks.  
9. ONE-TOUCH BEVERAGE BUTTONS (Fig. 3)  
The Z5 has eight beverage buttons. The first three buttons on  
the left side produce beverages coming out of the Auto-  
Cappuccino-System on the left side of the machine.  
The forth button on the left side produces hot water through the  
hot water spout (Fig.1,6).  
The four buttons on the right side produce different kinds of  
coffee beverages through the Dual Coffee Spout in the middle.  
All beverage buttons are pre-set to certain volumes and  
strengths (chapter 5).  
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 Cover Lid (Fig. 1,1)  
• While the grinder is running, turn the Grind Selector to  
the desired position (Fig. 4).  
Coarser: Turn the dial towards the bean symbol.  
Finer: Turn the dial away from the bean symbol.  
Important: The grinding grade can only be adjusted while  
the grinder is actually grinding.  
10. BREWING COFFEE AND ESPRESSO  
(1 Espresso, 2 Espressos, 1 Coffee, 2 Coffees)  
The four buttons on the right side of the Operating Panel (Fig. 3)  
deliver coffee through the Dual Coffee Spouts (Fig. 1,5).  
• Place one or two cups underneath Dual Coffee Spouts and  
push the desired button.  
The Impressa Z5 will grind, tamp and then brew the coffee. It  
uses a 2-step brewing process (Pre-Brew Aroma System).  
First, it moistens the ground coffee (pre-brew phase), pauses  
for a few seconds, and then starts the brewing process. The  
display will show the name of the button you pushed, e.g.  
1 ESPRESSO and then the strength which was programmed  
for this button, e.g. STRONG. The brewing process stops  
automatically as soon as the programmed volume of coffee is  
produced. When the display shows COFFEE READY you can  
brew the next cup of coffee.  
8. DAILY PREPARATION  
We recommend filling the water container every morning with  
fresh, cold water. This will enhance the taste of your coffee.  
• Make sure the Main Power Switch is on (Fig. 3a). In this case  
the On/Off button on top is illuminated.  
• Push the On/Off button on top of the machine. The display  
shows MACHINE IS HEATING. After approx. 2 minutes the  
display shows RINSE.  
• Push the Rinse Button (Fig. 3). Hot water will warm up all  
internal parts and pump through the coffee spouts. The water  
will be caught in the drawer underneath. The rinse cycle stops  
by itself and the display reads: COFFEE READY. You are now  
ready to make coffee.  
Very Important: After the brewing stops the Z5 will discard the  
used coffee. Please do not try to pull out the drawer (Fig. 2)  
during this time. It can seriously damage the machine. There

is no need to pull out the drawer unless you see the message  
EMPTY GROUNDS (chapter 27.4).  
per cup, e.g. if you choose 7 oz. the Z5 will actually brew a total  
of 14 oz.  
Please note: You can always stop the brewing process by  
pressing the Rotary Dial or any of the eight beverage buttons.  
This will not affect the pre-set values.  
Example: The 1-cup Espresso button is programmed to  
STRONG and approx. 1.5 OZ.  
Assume you want to use this button to make a MILD 4 oz. cup.  
COFFEE READY  
Turn the Rotary Dial until the display shows MILD, push the  
1-cup Espresso button. The Z5 starts grinding and displays MILD.  
• When it starts brewing, turn the Rotary Dial until the display  
shows 4.0 OZ.  
11. OVERRIDING STRENGTH AND CUP SIZE DURING  
BREWING.  
With the Z5’s override feature you are always able to change  
certain settings just before brewing without affecting the pre-set  
values. This is a great feature if you are in the mood for a different  
kind of coffee which is not programmed. (For changing pre-set  
values see chapter 25 and 26).  
The next time you use the 1-cup Espresso button it will produce  
the pre-set value STRONG, 1.5 oz..  
For the four coffee buttons on the right side, you can override  
the strength and the coffee volume.  
COFFEE READY  
12. AUTO CAPPUCCINO SYSTEM  
The three buttons on the left side of the operating panel produce  
beverages which are brewed through the Auto Cappuccino  
System (Fig. 1,13). We recommend watching the DVD.  
• First turn the Rotary Dial. It will display five different strength  
settings XMILD, MILD, NORMAL, STRONG, XSTRONG.  
• Select the one you like and then push one of the four coffee  
buttons. Once you pushed the coffee button, the display will  
again show the strength setting you just selected.  
You can now change the coffee volume.  
Turn the Rotary Dial and the display will show the coffee volume  
in oz. Turn the dial until the desired volume is set.  
Please note: When you select a different strength you must  
push one of the coffee buttons within the next 3 seconds,  
otherwise the Z5 reverts back to COFFEE READY.  
Please note: When you push one of the double cup buttons and  
you change the volume, the display will always show the volume  
The Auto Cappuccino System has the following components:  
• Dual fixed spouts coming out of the machine, (Fig. 5).  
• Dial Component with the small removable venting tip (Fig. 5a).  
• The removable Dual Nozzle system. The long system is already  
attached to the machine. If you use tall cups or glasses you  
can replace the long Dual Nozzle System with a shorter one  
(Fig. 5b). It is included in the Welcome Pack.  
The nozzle that is positioned closer to the machine will deliver  
coffee, this is called the Coffee Nozzle (Fig. 5e). The nozzle in  
the front will deliver hot steamed and frothed milk, this is  
called the Milk Nozzle (Fig. 5e).  
15.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Please note: There is a gap between the Coffee Nozzle and  
the fixed coffee spout. (Fig. 5e) This is necessary to assure  
proper coffee flow.  
MILK 15 SEC.  
Hot frothed milk is automatically delivered into your cup.  
Frothing stops automatically.  
Please note: The Milk Nozzle should always be tightly connected

You can also use pre-ground coffee, bypassing the grinder. This  
comes in handy if someone requests decaf coffee or a decaf  
cappuccino. You can also use the pre-ground funnel for ground  
flavored coffee.  
Please note: Never fill the funnel with instant coffee. Do not fill  
the funnel with more than two scoops. The funnel is not a  
storage container. If coffee is ground too fine it might be processed  
very slowly or the Z5 will interrupt the process altogether.

22. WATER CARE  
Water is heated inside the Z5. With use, this leads to calcium  
deposits forming inside the machine. With the Z5 you have the  
following options to take care of the water:  
Most convenient: Clearyl Water Filter Cartridge (chapter 23).  
Least expensive: Decalcifying System (chapter 24 and 29).  
Your Z5 is pre-set in the factory to automatically remind you to  
decalcify based on a water hardness of 10º DH = 13 grains. You  
can change the water hardness setting to comply with the water  
you are using (chapter 24).  
Please note: The Z5 will automatically remind you when it is  
necessary to run certain water maintenance programs. It is  
important that you follow those instructions. Otherwise your Z5  
might break down.  
• Push any of the six coffee producing buttons. The Z5 will brew  
the selected beverage. During brewing you can still change the  
coffee volume by turning the Rotary Dial.  
COFFEE READY  
Please note: If you inadvertently opened the lid for the coffee  
funnel, just close it. The Z5 will detect that there is no coffee in  
the funnel. The display will show PRE-GROUND NOT ENOUGH

23. CLEARYL WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE  
Activating:  
The machine comes with one Clearyl Water Filter Cartridge. The  
Clearyl cartridge  
• Reduces the water hardness up to 75%.  
You must activate the cartridge otherwise the Z5 cannot monitor  
it properly and assumes that the machine is still in decalcifying  
mode.  
• Removes (if present) up to 85% chlorine, up to 90% lead, up  
to 95% copper and up to 67% aluminum.  
• Cleans the water through an upward current principle (Fig. 9)  
just before the brewing cycle starts, ensuring freshly filtered  
water every time you make coffee.  
• Eliminates decalcifying except when using very hard water  
(25 grains or higher), see chapter 24. In this case we recom-  
mended to decalcify the Z5 once or twice a year.  
To reorder cartridges, see chapter 34.  
COFFEE READY  
• Push the Rotary Dial until you hear a beep.  
FILTER NO  
• Push the Rotary Dial again, to enter the FILTER program.

• Add the extension rod to the cartridge (Fig.8).  
• Remove the water tank, make sure it is empty.  
• Pull up the cartridge holder and insert the cartridge with its  
tapered end down (Fig. 10). Make sure it fits securely over the  
white mesh piece inside the water container. Push down  
gently (Fig. 11).  
button. The display shows PRESS BUTTON and the Rinse  
Button is still illuminated. Replace the empty container and  
continue the filter activation by pressing the Rinse Button.  
Please note: As long as the filter is activated, the water  
hardness setting is automatically turned off.  
• Close the cartridge holder. Make sure the holder snaps into  
place.  
• Fill the water tank with fresh cold water and replace.  
IMPORTANT: Do not let the filter dry out.  
If you do not use your IMPRESSA for more than three days in a  
row and you still have an active filter, we recommend the follow-  
ing easy procedure: Empty the water tank, remove the filter and  
20.

immerse it at least to a third of its length into a cup with cold  
water. Store the cup in the refrigerator. This way the filter does  
not dry out. When you use your machine again, install the filter.  
Use the hot water cycle and let approx. 16 oz. of water run  
through the system. Initially the water may be slightly discolored  
• Push and hold the Rinse Button until the display shows  
FILTER RINS. For the next 90 seconds the Z5 will push  
water through the cartridge and out through the milk nozzle.  
Initially, the water may have a slight discoloration. The program  
will stop automatically. The display shows UNIT IS HEATING  
and then COFFEE READY.  
23b. REPLACING THE CLEARYL WATER CARTRIDGE  
The filter is monitored automatically. After approx. 75 liters of  
water (~2,500 oz.) the display shows COFFEE READY and  
FILTER-CHANGE. The Rinse Button will light up.  
Please note: We recommend to set the time (chapter 26.7). If  
you have not used 75 liters of water in three months, the filter  
monitor will indicate that a filter change is necessary.  
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. This could clog and ruin your machine.  
• Push the Rinse Button. INSERT FILTER PRESS BUTTON.  
24. WATER HARDNESS MONITOR  
If you do not use the Clearyl Filter Cartridge (chapters 23 – 23B.)  
the Z5 will remind you when it is time to perform a decalcifying  
cycle. The machine is set to medium hard water. If you have  
harder water you need to set it to a higher level. If you have soft-  
er water you can set it to a lower level. If you are not sure about  
the hardness of your water, ask your local water company for the  
"Water Hardness in Grains." The Z5 will show you the water  
hardness in the German hardness scale (which is a bit different  
from the American "Grain" scale (see chart below).  
You can also use the enclosed water hardness indicator strip to  
determine the water hardness:  
• Remove the old filter and set the extension rod aside. The  
used filter cartridge is environmentally friendly and can be  
disposed with your regular household trash.  
• Insert the stick for one second into the water you want to  
use. Shake off any access water and wait for one minute.  
Important: Keep the Extension Rod  
• If all five fields of the test stick turn reddish, set the hardness  
level to 5 squares. If four fields turn reddish, set the hardness  
level to 4 squares and so on.  
• Make sure the water tank is empty.  
• Remove the new cartridge from its bag and rinse under  
running water. Now install as explained in chapter 23A.  
Please note: If you use Spring Water or Bottled Water you can  
set the hardness level to 1, "extremely soft water".  
• Place a 20 oz. container under the Auto Cappuccino System.

26.6 ENERGY SAVING SETTINGS  
The factory setting is SAVE NO.  
Two other settings are possible: SAVE LEVEL 1 and SAVE  
LEVEL 2.  
SAVE NO:  
The Z5 is always in immediate stand-by mode. You can make  
coffee and steam and froth milk without delay as long as the  
machine is on.  
SAVE LEVEL 1:  
The Z5 is in constant stand-by mode for coffee and in energy  
saving mode for steam.  
COFFEE READY  
26.5 MILK PROGRAMMING  
If the Z5 is mostly used for coffee this setting will consume less  
energy. When using the cappuccino or milk button, the Z5 will  
first heat up for about 30 seconds and then prompt you again.  
SAVE LEVEL 2:  
Five minutes after last use, the Z5 will lower the stand-by  
temperature to economy. When making coffee at a later time,  
the machine will first heat up for up to 30 seconds.  
Chapter 25.3 explains how to change the pre-sets for milk  
volume while the Z5 is brewing. In programming you can simply  
change the pre-set by changing the duration shown in the  
display without using any milk

condition the Z5 automatically monitors a series of functions,  
such as water tank level, used coffee container content, bean  
container etc. When certain conditions are not met, the Z5 will  
not let you prepare any beverages.

27.3 BEAN COVER MISSING  
28. TABLET CLEANING PROCESS  
When the display shows BEANCOVER MISSING the Z5 will not  
brew coffee. For safety reasons the cover must be in place.  
Make sure the bean cover is in place correctly.  
Please note: If you lose or break the bean cover the Z5 cannot  
be used at all. Contact our customer service department.  
When brewing coffee inside the Z5, coffee oils start to accumulate  
in the brewing chamber and around the internal sieves. The Z5  
automatically reminds you after approx. 200 cups of coffee to  
run a tablet cleaning cycle. This 15 minute procedure is highly  
effective and will insure proper performance. The display will  
show COFFEE READY CLEAN and the rinse button illuminates.  
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 white cleaning tablet  
(enclosed). The machine comes with a pack of 2 tablets.  
To re-order cleaning tablets see chapter 34.  
Important: Once the cleaning program has started do not  
interrupt the procedure.  
COFFEE READY CLEAN  
• Push and hold the rinse button until the display shows TRAY  
GROUNDS EMPTY.  
a. Remove and empty the drawer and used coffee container,  
TRAY MISSING and replace complete assembly (Fig. 2) .  
Important: Even if the drawer and the used coffee container are  
empty, you still need to remove the drawer for approx. 20 seconds  
and then replace it. The display shows PRESS BUTTON.  
b. Place a 12 oz. container under the coffee spouts and an 8 oz.  
container under the nozzles of the auto-cappuccino system.

display shows ADD TABLET.  
27.4 EMPTY COFFEE GROUNDS  
Used coffee grounds are collected in the used coffee container  
(Fig. 2,8). After approx. 16 coffee portions, the display shows  
GROUNDS EMPTY and the Z5 will no longer make any bever-  
ages. Lift and pull out the complete drawer assembly carefully,  
since there is water in it (Fig. 2) TRAY MISSING.  
Important: Do not turn off or unplug the machine while you are  
emptying the coffee grounds. Empty the used coffee container  
and the drawer. Make sure that the grid, tray and use coffee  
container are all assembled correctly and re-insert.  
COFFEE READY  
Important: If you pull out the drawer in between, you must  
empty the used coffee container. The Z5 assumes that the used  
coffee container will be emptied. If you do not empty the con-  
tainer, used coffee will overflow inside the machine and can  
cause serious damage to the coffee release mechanism. If the  
display shows COFFEE BIN MISSING, the tray is not attached  
to the drawer (Fig. 2,9).  
Please note: The Z5 does not sense whether or not the used  
coffee container is inserted (Fig. 2,8). If you forget to insert the  
used coffee container, ground coffee will be discharged onto the  
tray inside the machine.  
d. Open the Cover Lid then the Ground Coffee Lid and drop in  
one white cleaning tablet, then close lid (Fig. 13).

Please note: After this cleaning process, remove the powder  
funnel insert and clean under running water and replace.  
Tip: You can run a tablet cleaning cycle at anytime even if the  
machine does not prompt you. It is possible that very oily coffee  
beans deposit more oils slowing down the brewing process. An  
extra tablet cleaning cycle will remove the oil build up.

This program takes about 50 minutes.  
When the display shows COFFEE READY DESCALE it is time  
to decalcify the machine. You can still make coffee. However, it  
is highly recommended that you decalcify the machine within the  
next 3 to 4 days.

turn off automatically.  
• Before transport make sure the Water Container and the Bean  
Container are empty.  
Please note: Use the original inside and outside carton for  
transport, or you can order a custom molded, special service ship-  
ping container through our customer service department ($40).  
i. Replace the water tank.

31. TIPS FOR BETTER COFFEE  
Pre-warm cups.  
If your cup is pre-warmed, your coffee will stay warm longer,  
especially when you prepare small cups. Use the hot water  
spout to pre-warm your cups.  
COFFEE READY.  
Tip: You can run a decalcifying cycle at anytime even if the  
machine does not prompt you.

The closer the coffee spouts are to your cups, the less heat is  
lost in the air. The crema is more durable if the coffee flows down  
the inside of the cup, rather than hitting the bottom of the cup.  
Old beans  
Beans will lose aroma when sitting too long in the bean container.  
We recommend to fill just enough coffee beans into the bean  
container for up to three or four days.  
B. THE DISPLAY READS FILL WATER BUT THERE IS  
ENOUGH WATER IN THE WATER TANK.  
Reason: The low water floatation device (Fig. 10 "x") is missing.  
Solution: Within the water tank is a small compartment. Inside is  
a small black floatation device. On top is a small clear plastic  
cover. This small plastic cover is missing and the floatation  
device is outside of the small compartment. Check if you can  
locate both pieces and reassemble. If you cannot find them, call  
1-800-220-5701. We will send the pieces to you FREE OF CHARGE.  
32. TROUBLE SHOOTING  
A. NO COFFEE COMES OUT OF THE COFFEE SPOUT  
Reason: Beans in bean container are not properly feeding into  
the grinder because they are stuck together.  
Solution: Stir beans before grinding. While grinding turn  
the grinding selector to the coarsest setting (chapter 7).  
Reason: You used ground coffee in the Ground Coffee Funnel.  
The ground coffee was too fine.  
Solution: Use ground coffee that is ground somewhat coarser.  
Reason: No water is transported through the system.  
Solution: Remove water container and make sure that the  
connecting valve is free of any particles (like a coffee bean etc).  
Reason: The ground coffee funnel or the internal brewing  
chamber is clogged.  
Solution: Place a cup underneath the Dual Coffee Spout and  
run an extra rinse cycle. COFFEE READY

of any old milk residue).  
• the Auto Cappuccino System is assembled tightly (chapter 12)  
• all parts of the Auto Cappuccino System are clean and not  
clogged with old milk residue  
The milk you are using is "too heavy". "Half and Half" or liquid coffee  
creamers like "coffeemate" are too heavy to be siphoned fast  
enough through the system.  
Skim milk will always produce more froth than whole milk.  
D. GRINDER MAKES AN EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE;  
NO BEANS ARE GROUND  
Reason: A stone is blocking the burr grinder.  
Turn the machine off. Unplug the machine.  
• Open the Cover Lid and remove the Bean Container Safety
