The backpanel is secured with two proprietary screws with oval head. They seem to be rivets, but in fact are screws. The only purpose is, to keep us out of our own devices. You can remove them using an oval drive bit. (Part of some IFixit tool collections or available at a Jura provider or iFixit). In a pitch try needle nose pliers. Here a DIY guide.
Remove the two oval head screws on the lower edge of the backpanel.
Lift the panel up.

Blow into the flowmeter at the lower nozzle. It should go quite easily and you should hear the turbine whirring.
The upper half of the flowmeter is locked in place with a twist-lock latch. Turn the upper part slightly counterclockwise.
Lift off the upper half. Pay attention to the sealing ring. The turbine can be lifted out easily.
Now you can clean and decalcify everything well. In particular, clean the inlet nozzle, e.g. with a needle. The opening is quite narrow.
If the turbine does not run easily now, the flowmeter must be replaced. The sensor itself may also be defective.
