Measuring and Programming Water Hardness
Water hardness measuring is very important in order to de ne the descaling frequency and to install the “INTENZA+” water lter (for more detail on
the water lter, see next chapter).
To measure the water hardness follow the steps below:
Immerse the water hardness test strip (supplied with the machine) in
1
water for 1 second.
Note:
The test strip can only be used for one single measurement.
Wait for one minute.

Check how many squares have changed to the color red and then refer
3
to the table.
Note:
The numbers on the water hardness test strip correspond to the water
hardness adjustment settings.
The letters correspond to the references that are located at the base of the
“INTENZA+” water lter (see next chapter).

your co ee.
The “INTENZA+” water lter can be purchased separately. For further details, please refer to the maintenance products page in this manual.
Water is a crucial part of every espresso/co ee, so it’s important to always
have it professionally ltered. Using the “INTENZA+” water lter will prevent
mineral deposits from building up and improve your water quality.

The machine allows for certain adjustments so that you can brew the best
tasting co ee possible.
Saeco Adapting System
Co ee is a natural product and its characteristics may change according to
its origin, blend and roast. The machine is equipped with a self-adjusting
system that allows the use of all types of co ee beans available on the

The machine automatically adjusts itself after brewing several cups of
co ee to optimize the extraction of the co ee to the compactness of the
ground co ee.
Adjusting the Ceramic Co ee Grinder
Ceramic co ee grinders always guarantee accurate and perfect grinding

This technology provides for full aroma preservation, delivering the truly
Italian taste in every cup.
Warning:
The ceramic co ee grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Do not insert ngers or other objects. Only adjust the ceramic
