Introduction

Follow this guide to open the casing of a Jura J5.

Tools

Step 1

Unplug the power cord!
Remove the water tank and the drip tray. Remove all coffee beans from the storage container.

Step 2

Flip open the lid of the bean compartment.
Unscrew the two slotted screws inside the bean compartment. The screws have a rubber washer and will not come out completely.
Remove the bean compartment.

Bei mir war nur die auf dem Foto gezeigte Schraube vorhanden, habe dann die 2. gesucht....gab es aber nicht. Es scheint also mehrere Ausbaustufen der Maschine zu geben ;-)

Michael -

Step 3

The top cover is fastened with oval head screws. Unscrew them.
These screws have an oval head that makes them look like rivets (picture 2). You need to use a special bit - also available at iFixit - for their removal. Here a DIY guide. If the right bit is not available, it could be done with a pair of needle nose pliers. Jura wants to keep us out of our own machines!!!

Step 4

Also remove the two oval head screws underneath the ground coffee compartment lid.

Step 5

Now you can pry up the top cover all around.
Remove the top cover. This often requires a little force.
Use plastic tools to avoid scratching your device.

Step 6

Turn the device with the back facing you.
Turn the Jura label a few degrees counterclockwise. If it's hard to do, use a small suction cup.
Remove the Jura label.

Step 7

Underneath the label you will find two Torx T15 screws. Remove them.
Carefully pull the top of the chrome cover slightly outwards, then push it down and put it aside.
