Step 2

On the rear side is an obstacle: four “oval head screws” looking like rivets. You can remove them using a special oval drive bit. They are sold at iFixit with the tool kits as well as some Jura suppliers or somewhere in the internet. Jura wants to keep us out of our own machines!
Using an oval head bit you can screw them out. If you haven´t got one you can carefully use pliers. It is a good idea to later change the screws for normal ones.
Beneath both top side covers are two Torx T15 screws. Remove those. Now lift off the whole top cover. Sometimes it jams and you have to use a bit of force.
The side covers must be pushed backwards by about 1 cm. Sometimes this is a little bit difficult to move. If necessary, wedge a plastic opening tool into the gap between the side covers and the front panel. The rear cover can be easily removed.

Step 3

              Heating cartridge

The heating cartridge is the aluminum cylinder under the right side, around which spirals the heating runs. It is bolted to a plastic slide. The next steps will show how to pull out the slide and remove all connections.
If the boiler looks like the second picture, it is the thermoblock. There is another guide here.

The pressure hoses are secured against slipping out with metal clips. Pull out the metal clamp on the hose between the pump and the heating cartridge
Disconnect the hose from the pump. Pay attention to the little seal, it probably lingers afterwards. It is good to replace them with a new one when assembling.
