How do I completely remove the cup from the base, so that I can empty any unused water?

It's removable. Move the cup around (it titled to the side and I was able to remove it that way).

I remove the hood and tilt the dryer a to remove the cup to empty the unused water ...

There is a measuring line on the water cup that is provided with the cleaner and regular water is fine. Make sure the water does not go above the "cross bars" in the filling .

The top presding cup on this model cannot be remove. However, it is easy to clean. I wipe/clean it a very wet cloth and dry with papertowel.

The water tank is in the base at the back. There is a cap that you unscrew; they provide you with a small plastic cup.

I just put some water in it and a tiny bit of liquid dish soap and then cover the top with my hand and shake vigorously. Then rinse it out with more water to get the soap out. The liquid soap is probably unnecessary, in all actuality.

I couldn't find a way to separate without breaking it. So I end up just rinsing it out after use. In that way it is a poor design. If someone knows how to do it, I would be interested in knowing too.

You screw the blade onto the cup, flip it over and place it on the base. Blend your ingredients, then twist it off the base, flip the cup over and remove the blade. Not impractical at all.

I am not sure about the first two questions...but yes, you can take the water container off to empty it completely. I wouldn't store it with water standing there anyway!

I pull it out and put it under a running open faucet. If you have the Jura Impressa Z9, I would highly recommend you remove the milk frother, pull it apart and run fresh water through it. The "Rinse Milk System" doesn't fully clean it. At first I used to disconnect the back end of the hose, put it in a container with water and press the "Milk" button, but then realized that this would shorten the life of the filters and other suppliers that are not cheap. If you do this when you are finished with a batch of coffees, you should never have to use the clean milk system solution. I pull it out and put it under a running open faucet.

There may be too much water in the base, empty it out and let it refill, hope this helps!

I don't think you can. The cup I had leaked so bad, I stopped using it. I stained too many work shirts.

Hi: No...neither of those things can be removed, but there's absolutely no problem in cleaning the inside of the tumbler. The top comes off - and can be cleansed separately - but with the top off, you have full access to the inside. If this doesn't answer your question, please let me know and I'll try again.

At first, I couldn't get the water tank off - I had to fill it by putting the whole unit under the faucet. Then, my husband got it "unstuck," so yes, you can remove it. My problem with the unit is that I can't get enough pressure unless I put my hand in the water and keep the black plastic thing-a-ma-jig slightly raised on one side. Very annoying!

There is a plastic cup in the holder that I like that keeps the water separate from the metal. Brush stays out a little but you can empty it easily..

The pamphlet lists www.garfieldint.com and 1-888-731-6688, which might help with your first two questions. As the others have said, yes you will removed the water cup to empty it, and refill via the hole on top, once the cup is back in place!

The only water connections are on the top-cold in, hot out and the pressure relief valve which you can see in the picture. To empty it, you would have to turn it upside down.

I don't see any way to remove it. I've been happy with how easy it is to keep clean-- I just wipe it down with a damp cloth after it cools off. The drip tray on the bottom does come off, and I've either washed it by hand or in the dishwasher.
