1 Preparing and using for the first time
1 Preparing and using for the first time
Visit us on the Internet (www.jura.com). You will find interesting and
up-to-date information on your J6 and on every aspect of coffee.
When setting up your J6, please note the following:
U
Place the J6 on a horizontal surface that is not sensitive to
water.
U
Choose a spot for your J6 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
container.
T Open the bean container cover and remove the aroma
preservation cover.
T Remove any dirt or foreign objects from inside the bean
container.
T Fill the bean container with coffee beans, then close the
aroma preservation cover and the bean container 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.
T Hold the test strip briefly (for 1second) under flowing water.
Shake off the water.
T Wait for about 1minute.

When using the machine for the first time, you can choose whether
you want to operate J6 with or without the CLEARYL Smart filter
cartridge. As well as limescale, the filter cartridge filters many other
substances that impair aroma and flavour out of the water. These
substances may negatively affect the coffee. To enjoy the best
quality coffee at all times, we recommend that you use CLEARYL
Smart.
If the machine is operated with a defective power cord, there is a
danger of potentially fatal electric shock.
T Never use a machine which is damaged.
T Never use a machine which has a defective power cord.

Hot coffee, hot steam and hot water can cause scalding. Scalding is
a serious burn.
T Use extreme care when handling hot liquid or steam.
T Allow liquid to cool down before drinking.
T In the event of scalding, rinse affected area with cold water
and seek medical attention.
T Keep children AWAY.
Basic information about preparing drinks:
U
During the grinding operation you can select the coffee
strength of single products by turning the Rotary Switch.
U
During preparation, you can change the preset amounts (e.g.
amount of water or milk) by turning the Rotary Switch.
U
You can stop the machine at any time while a specialty
coffee or hot water is being prepared. To do this, press the
‘’ button or the Rotary Switch.
E The water volume is given as standard in ‘oz’. You can change
this setting to ‘ml’ in programming mode (see Chapter 4
‘Permanent settings in programming mode – Unit for amount
of water’).
Coffee tastes best served hot. A cold porcelain cup cools the
beverage – and impairs the taste. We therefore recommend
prewarming the cups. The full coffee aroma can develop only in
prewarmed cups. You can purchase a JURA cup warmer from your
specialized dealer.
You can make permanent settings for all products in programming
mode (see Chapter 4 ‘Permanent settings in programming mode –
Adjusting the product settings’).
