“INTENZA+” water filter installation

We recommend you to install the “INTENZA+” water filter as this prevents lime scale to build up in your machine and preserves a more intense aroma to your espresso coffee.

You can purchase separately the INTENZA+ water filter. Please refer to the ordering maintenance products chapter in this user manual for further details.

Water is a crucial part of every espresso, so it’s most important to always have it professionally filtered. Using the “INTENZA+” water filter will prevent mineral deposits from building up and improve your water quality.

Remove the small white filter from the water tank and store it in a dry place.

Remove the “INTENZA+” water filter from its packaging, immerse it ver- tically (with the opening positioned upwards) in cold water and gently press the sides so as to let the air bubbles out.

Set the filter according to the measurements performed (see previous chapter) and indicated on the base of the filter:

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

Put the filter into the empty water tank. Press it until it cannot move further down.
