Dear Coffee Connoisseur,
when you are preparing a delicious coffee
drink, the water you use plays an important
role. After all, water accounts for about 98%
of a cup of coffee.
That is why we recommend you use the
MAVEA
®
INTENZA water filter cartridge,
which is designed specially for use with
your appliance. It optimizes your hot
beverages and gives your appliance
maximum protection from limescale.
INTENZA
Using the MAVEA
®
INTENZA water filter
cartridge not only reduces the carbonate
hardness content of your tap water, but also
filters substances that can affect the aroma
and taste of your coffee, such as chlorine.
As the carbonate hardness content of water
has a significant influence on the aroma and
taste of your coffee, the MAVEA
®
INTENZA
water filter cartridge has an aroma ring on
the underside. By turning this ring, you can
set the optimal aroma level (A, B or C) for
your tap water.
Please use the enclosed test strip to ascer-
tain the optimal setting of the aroma ring for
your appliance.
1 Dip the test strip in the tap water
for 10 seconds, then wait for about
1 minute before checking the results.
2 Now compare the water hardness
levels:
□
Levels 1 and 2 – ring setting A
□
Level 3 – ring setting B
□
Level 4 – ring setting C

Record the test results for future filter
changes by ticking the appropriate box.
The MAVEA
®
INTENZA water filter
cartridge is easy to use. Just proceed
as follows:
Turn the aroma ring on
the underside of the
water filter cartridge to
the correct level.
Immerse the water filter
cartridge upside down
in cold water and press
it gently on the sides to
remove any air bubbles.
Then place the filter
cartridge firmly in the
water tank by hand (or
using the measuring
spoon if you have it
nearby).
Now remove the water
tank and fill it with cold
water up to the ”max“
mark.
