How to clean a Jura WE6 ?
Written By Pierre Yves Orban, last update onDoes your Jura WE6 coffee machine need cleaning? Or do you want to clean it before moving?
Good to Know
- Your Jura machine requires cleaning after 180 preparations or 80 rinses upon startup. You can either wait for the machine to prompt for cleaning or force a cleaning by pressing the "P" (programming) button.
- Javry recommends using Jura or Solute cleaning tablets to clean your machine. The use of other products may damage your machine.
- It is important not to interrupt the cleaning program once it has started, as it could damage your machine or render it unusable.
- A cleaning cycle takes approximately 20 minutes, but it will only take a few minutes of your time as the machine cleans itself.
