Important Safeguards
These safeguards apply for machines with UL safety test (see rating
plate and chapter 14, ‘Technical data’).
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or
injury to persons, including the following:
Read all instructions.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons, do
not immerse cord, plugs, or body of machine in water or other
liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
Allow to cool before putting or taking off parts, and before
cleaning the appliance.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service
facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
The use of accessory attachement not recommended by the
appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock, or
injury to persons.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter,
or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a
heated oven.
Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the

Important Safeguards
a. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long
cord.
Your IMPRESSA has a 3-pin grounded plug.
b. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care
is exercised in their use.
c. If an extension cord is used,
1. the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
and
2. if the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord
should be a grounding type 3-wire cord, and
3. the longer cord shall be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children of tripped over.
As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not modify the plug in any way or attempt to defeat this
safety feature.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove any service
covers. No user serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done by
authorized personnel only.
This appliance is for household use. Any servicing other than clean-
ing and user maintenance should be performed by an authorized
service representative:
Do not immerse base in water or try to disassemble.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove the
base. No user serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done
by authorized service personnel only.
Check voltage to be sure that the voltage indicated on the
name plate agreees with your voltage.
Never use warm or hot water to fill the water container! Use
cold water only.

any other purpose will be deemed improper. JURA Elektroapparate
AG cannot accept any responsibility for the consequences of
improper use.

these instructions. Keep this manual close to the IMPRESSA and, if
appropriate, pass it on to the next user.
Please read and note carefully the following important safety infor-
mation.
By doing this, you can avoid the life-threatening danger of electric
shock:
Never use a machine which has been damaged or with a
defective power cable.
For information on what to do in case of damage, for example
if there is a smell of burning, unplug the machine immediately
from the mains supply and contact the JURA service centre.
If the power cable for this machine is damaged, it must be
repaired either directly by JURA or by a JURA approved service
centre.

and does not rub against sharp edges.
Never open and repair the machine yourself. Do not modify
the machine in any way that is not described in the IMPRESSA
Manual. The machine contains live parts. If opened, there is a
danger of serious injury. Repairs may only be carried out by

The new entry level model in the One Touch Cappuccino league is
sure to please all cappucino fans with its simple ’touch of a button’
function without having to move the cup. In elegant piano black and
with a new user interface, the high-quality IMPRESSA C9 is fully in
keeping with current trends and exudes an aura of superiority, dura-
bility and competence. It impressively demonstrates these attributes
with each coffee speciality that you enjoy.
One Touch Cappuccino: Your IMPRESSA C9 makes a cup of
cappuccino at the touch of a button, without you having to
move the cup. Hot milk foam, flowing into the cup and slowly
starting to fill it. Steam which rises, awakening the anticipa-
tion of a delicious speciality. Aromatic coffee, blending with
the milk, pushing up the milk foam topping. These are the
protagonists in a sensuous drama - the drama of perfect cof-
fee preparation.
Simple operation: With the clearly arranged control elements
and the easy-to-understand text and graphic display, opera-
tion of the IMPRESSA C9 is also simple for beginners. You can
navigate effectively through the individual programme steps
by simply turning and pressing the Rotary Switch. The focus
is on your personal taste. Simply select the coffee strength,
amount of water and temperature according to your individ-
ual preferences.
Energy saving mode (E.S.M.©): The IMPRESSA C9 actively
assists you in saving energy. With the Energy Saving Mode
you can adjust the energy saving potential to suit the way you
like to enjoy your beverages. The machine can be completely
disconnected from the power supply at the main switch - for
instance if you are going to be absent for some time.
