limescale build-up in your machine and preserves a more intense aroma of
your co ee.
The “INTENZA+” water lter can be purchased separately. For further details, please refer to the maintenance products page in this user manual.
Water is a crucial part of every co ee, so it is very important to always have
it professionally ltered. Using the “INTENZA+” water lter will prevent
mineral deposits from building up and improve your water quality.
“INTENZA+” Water Filter Installation
Remove the small white lter from the water tank and store it in a dry
1
place.

press the sides so as to let the air bubbles out.
Set the “INTENZA+” water lter according to the measurements per-
3
formed (see previous chapter) and indicated on the base of the lter:
A = soft water – equals 1 or 2 on the test strip
B = hard water (standard) – equals 3 on the test strip
C = very hard water – equals 4 on the test strip
