Introduction
Like on almost all coffee machines the dispensing head van be clogged up by coffee grease, the Jura S models are no exception. Once blocked, no coffee will be dispensed by the nozzles. The coffee will run through the sides, or only one nozzle is open. You can try to clean the nozzles with a pipe cleaner, but this is not a good and long-term solution.
A revision and cleaning is not that difficult. For this purpose the machine has to be opened up.
-
-
Lift out the coffee tray
-
Remove the lid sealing the coffee bean container
-
Remove all of the coffee beans you can possibly remove.
-
Pull the adjuster of the coffee bean grinder straight up
-
Remove the four T15 Torx screws
-
-
-
Remove the cup heat plate.
-
Below the cup heat plate there are three more T15 Torx screws. Remove them.
-
-
-
Remove the knob for the steam valve by simply pulling it off.
-
The front cover is secured with a Torx T15 screw. Remove it.
-
-
-
Use a spudger to lift the two notches at the top of the front cover a bit to release the keypad at the top.
-
Lift the keypad upwards and pull it to the back. The steam pipe will slide out from its connection.
-
-
-
Remove the silicone hose leading from the steam valve to the coffee spout. If it is secured with a cable tie which must be removed first.
-
The front cover is now free and can be opened.
-
-
-
Turn the machine so that the back is facing you and push the coffee spout up as far as it will go.
-
Directly above the upper edge of the housing are two openings on the back of the coffee spout. In them you will see two detents. Carefully press the latches inwards, then you can remove the cover of the coffee spout.
-
-
-
Open the front panel like a door.
-
The supply lines are connected with an angle piece. Above on the angle piece is a clip. Carefully bend it little upwards and pull out the angle piece. It might be stuck a little at first.
-
-
-
The coffee spout is still clipped in with four detents. Carefully press the four latches inward - this is quite difficult - and lift the coffee spout out to the front.
-
-
-
The distributor is secured with a detent. Carefully lift the detent with a metal spatula.
-
Place a lever tool in the gap between the distributor and the coffee spout. Gently lift the distributor out about 8 mm alternately on the left and right.
-
-
-
Turn the coffee spout upside down. The inner coffee spout must be removed for cleaning.
-
This model still has a metal tube inserted for the tea water. First loosen the plastic lock, then carefully pull out the tube with wiggling movements.
-
The inner coffee inlet is still clipped in. Release the catch and lift it out.
-
Watch out for the magnets that act as a brake on the sliding plate. Do not lose them.
-
-
-
You can pull the distributor off completely, but it is not absolutely necessary. Clean all parts well or replace if something is damaged.
-
Follow the steps in reverse order to reassemble the machine.
With the Impressa XS 90 there is an additional ground beans funnel that needs to be removed that hides two of the four torx screws
