15b. AUTOMATIC FILTER REPLACEMENT
The filter is monitored automatically. After approx. 60 liters of
water (~2,000 oz.) the MESSAGE light and the CLEARYL light
(Fig. 3a) illuminate, indicating that it is time to change the filter.
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. If the filter is not replaced, the calcium
build-up will clog and damage your machine.

1. Remove the water tank and the old filter. Make sure the water

tank is empty.

2. Remove a new cartridge from its bag, rinse under running

water and insert in water tank.

3. Close the cartridge holder. Make sure it snaps into place.
4. Fill the water tank with water and replace.
5. Push and hold the CLEARYL button until its light blinks.
6. Place a 20 oz. container under the steam nozzle.
7. Turn the SELECTOR to the Water symbol.
The C5 pumps water through the cartridge and out through the
steam nozzle for approximately 60 seconds. Initially, the water
may be discolored. The program will stop automatically.
8. Turn the SELECTOR back to the Cup symbol.
The RINSE symbol blinks, indicating the machine is heating up.

15c. MANUAL FILTER REPLACEMENT
If the filter is more than 2 months old and the display does not
indicate to replace filter, replace as follows.
Your machine is turned off, but in stand-by mode. Only the ON
symbol is visible. Now follow the instructions in chapter 15b,
steps 1– 8.

15d. DO NOT LET THE CLEARYL BLUE FILTER DRY OUT
If the filter is not immersed in water, the granular center will dry
out and block any water from passing through.
• If machine is not used for a few days, leave some water in the

water tank so the filter will not dry out. Upon using the
machine again, fill the water tank with fresh water and process
approx. 2 oz. of water through the hot water spout.

• If the machine will not be used for a longer period of time,

empty the water container and remove the Clearyl Blue filter.
Fill a glass with at least 2 inches of water and immerse the filter.
– Place the glass in the refrigerator.
– When you use the machine again, install the filter. Activation

is not necessary.

16. AUTOMATIC MONITORING
The machine has built-in systems to automatically monitor all
vital functions, such as
– filling the water tank (chapter 16a),
– emptying the used coffee container (chapter 16b),
– filling beans (chapter 16c),
– replacing the Clearyl Blue water cartridge (chapter 15b),
– cleaning program with special tablet to remove internal coffee

oil build-up (chapter 17).

• Whenever the MESSAGE LIGHT lights up or blinks, open the

ACCESS door. One of the red lights will also be on or blinking,
indicating the cause for the message.
