WATER HARDNESS MEASUREMENT
The water hardness measurement is very
important in order to correctly manage
the “Intenza” fi lter and the frequency with
which the machine must be descaled.
Immerse the water hardness test strip
provided with the machine in water for
1 second.
Note: The test strip is only
valid for one measurement.
Check how many squares change colour
and refer to the table.
The letters correspond to the references
that are located in the base of the Intenza
fi lter. The fi lter must be adjusted based on
this measurement.
The numbers correspond to the settings
that are found for the water hardness ad-
justment that is shown in the program-
ming section.
More precisely:
1 = (very soft water)
2 =
(soft water)
3 =
(hard water)
4 =
(very hard water)
Once this value is known, set the water
hardness value as specified in the pro-
gramming section.
3 Replace the suction pipe inside the
container and close the cover by press-
ing it to the end.
After that, the container may be used to
brew the desired beverages.
2 Fill the container with milk: Do not
exceed the MAX level indicated on the
container.
