1 Preparing and using for the first time
1 Preparing and using for the first time
Visit us on the Internet. You can download short operating instruc-
tions for your machine from the JURA website (www.jura.com). You
will also find interesting and up-to-date information on your Z6 and
on every aspect of coffee.
When setting up your Z6, please note the following:
U
Place the Z6 on a horizontal surface that is not sensitive to
water.
U
Choose a spot for your Z6 which protects the machine against
overheating. Ensure that the ventilation slots are not covered.
The bean container has an aroma preservation cover. This will ensure
that your coffee beans retain their aroma for longer.
Coffee beans which have been treated with additives (e.g. sugar),
ground coffee or freeze-dried coffee will damage the grinder.
T Only use roasted, untreated coffee beans to fill the bean con-
tainer.
TRemove the aroma preservation cover.
TRemove any dirt or foreign objects from inside the bean
container.
TFill the bean container with coffee beans and close the
aroma preservation cover.
When you use the machine for the first time, you must set the water
hardness. If you do not know the hardness of your water, you can
find this out first. Use the Aquadur
®
test strips supplied with the
machine.
THold the test strip briefly (for 1second) under flowing water.
Shake off the water.
TWait for about 1minute.
