INSTALLATION
For your own and for other people’s
safety, carefully follow the instruc-
tions provided in the“Safety Regula-
tions” section.
Machine Packaging
The original packaging has been designed
and constructed to protect the machine
during transport. We recommend keep-
ing the packaging material for possible
future transport.
Preliminary Operations
• Remove the coffee bean hopper lid
and the drip tray with grill from the
packaging.
• Remove the coee machine from the
packaging and position it in a place
that meets the requirements described
in the safety regulations.
• Place the drip tray with grill into its
appropriate seat on the machine. Make
sure it is fully inserted and clicks into
place.
• Place the coee bean hopper lid on the
bean hopper.
Note: Insert the plug in the
machine and in the wall so-
cket only when indicated and check
that the power button is switched
to “0”.
Important Note: Carefully
read the explanations of all
the warnings displayed on the LCD
control panel (section “LCD Display
Warnings”).
Never remove the drip tray
when the machine is turned
on. Wait a couple of minutes after
turning on/off, since the machine
will be carrying out a rinse/self-
cleaning cycle (see section “Rinse/
Self-cleaning Cycle”).
• Remove the water tank and install the
Intenza water lter as recommended
on page 27.
• Fill the tank with fresh drinking water.
Do not exceed the “max” level indi-
cated on the water tank. Once filled,
place the tank back into the machine.
Fill the tank only with fresh,
non-sparkling water. Hot wa-
ter or any other liquid may damage
the tank and/or the machine. Do not
turn on the machine when the tank
is empty. Make sure there is enough
water in the tank.
• Remove the coee bean hopper lid.
Note:Thehopper maybepro-
vided with different safety
features according to the regula-
tions of the country of use of the
machine.
• Slowly pour the coee beans into the
hopper.
Only coee beans may be put
into the coee bean hopper.
Ground coffee, instant coffee or
any other object may damage the
machine.
• Replace the coee bean hopper lid.
• Insert the plug into the socket on the
back of the machine.
• Insert the plug of the other end of the
cable into a wall socket with suitable

Intenza Water Filter
To improve the quality of the used water,
it is recommended that you install the
water lter.
Remove the small white filter from the
tank and store it in a dry place sheltered
from dust.
Remove the water lter from its packag-
ing, immerse it vertically (with the open-
ings positioned upwards) in cold water
and gently press its sides so as to let the
air bubbles out.
Set the Intenza Aroma System as specied
on the box.
A = Soft water
B = Hard water (standard)
C = Very hard water
Water hardness measurement
The water hardness measurement is very
important in order to correctly manage
the“Intenza”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
lter. The 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.
Insert the filter in the empty tank. The
reference mark and the groove must
match. Push rmly until it is completely
inserted.
Fill the tank with fresh drinking water and
re-insert it into the machine.
Dispense the water in the tank by using
the hot water function (see section“Hot
Water Dispensing”).
Fill the water tank again.
Press the ON/OFF button to change the
machine status to stand-by mode.
