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

You can purchase separately the INTENZA+ water fi lter. 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 fi ltered. Using the “INTENZA+” water fi lter will prevent 
mineral deposits from building up and improve your water quality. 

 Remove the small white fi lter from the water tank and store it in a dry 

place.

 Remove the “INTENZA+” water fi lter 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 fi lter according to the measurements performed (see previous 

chapter) and indicated on the base of the fi 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

 Put the fi lter into the empty water tank. Press it until it cannot move 

further down.
