Thanks to the BRITA INTENZA water filter cartridge, limescale deposits are reduced,
leading to a prolonged machine lifetime and optimal performance concerning the
brewing pressure and brewing temperature as well as a more intensive aroma of
your coffee.
You can select whether or not you have a water filter inserted in the appliance
settings menu, meaning it is possible to operate the appliance without a water
filter. However, using a water filter not only extends the descaling interval but also
increases the lifetime of your machine. It also improves the taste of your coffee.
Therefore, we generally recommend inserting the BRITA INTENZA water filter car-
tridge and replacing it when the appliance prompts you to do so.

1. Setting the water quality on your BRITA INTENZA water cartridge
To make sure that the Original INTENZA Aroma Ring is optimally adjusted, you can
test your water quality with the included test strip. Hold the test strip briefly into your
tap water, wait one minute and read your water quality from the test strip.
Now, set the ring on the bottom of the cartridge to the corresponding position
(letter A, B or C).
A: for regions with soft water
B: for regions with medium hard water
C: for regions with hard water (default setting)
2. Installing the water filter cartridge
Place the cartridge upside down in a jug of cold
●
water and gently squeeze the cartridge to remove
potential air bubbles.
Take the water tank off of the appliance and verti-
●
cally place the cartridge in the purpose-built bracket
on the inside of the tank. The Original INTENZA
Aroma Ring with the letters has to be on the bot-
tom side. To ensure best quality, make sure that the
cartridge is firmly inserted and that the seal is in the
correct position.
Fill the tank up to the Max-marking with cold tap
●
water. Place the lid on the tank.
Place the water tank back on the appliance.
●
IMPORTANT: When using a cartridge for the first time, each BRITA INTENZA water
filter cartridge has to be rinsed with half a litre of water. To rinse the cartridge,
activate the automatic rinse program by adjusting the appliance to an inserted
water filter. Proceed as described in section "Adjusting the appliance / Water filter
programming" on page 127.
