FILTER AND WATER HARDNESS
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE WATER HARDNESS SETTING?
In order to avoid scale build-up in your machine and to optimise the quality of your coffee, we advise you to adjust
the water hardness setting on your machine.
HOW TO SET THE WATER HARDNESS ON YOUR MACHINE?
SETTINGS
. Fill a glass of water.
.
Dip the water-hardness testing stick (8) supplied with the machine in your glass of water.
. Wait for 1 minute. The squares on the stick will change colour.
. Count the number of coloured squares. This indicates the hardness of the water,
from 0 to 4.
. In the “Water Hardness” menu, press the corresponding number between 0 and 4.
. Press OK.
IF YOU RUN OUT OF WATER-HARDNESS TESTING STICKS
If you need to repeat this operation, remember to adjust the water hardness setting according to the location of use
or information provided by your local water company, using the table below:

The Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge optimises the taste of coffee, and reduces scaling and maintenance.
WHEN SHOULD I CHANGE THE CLARIS AQUA FILTER SYSTEM CARTRIDGE?
1. Two months after set-up or when your machine noties you.
2. When changing the cartridge, we recommend that you turn the grey ring on the top of the lter
cartridge to indicate the date + two months.
HOW DO I INSTALL THE CLARIS AQUA FILTER SYSTEM CARTRIDGE?
MAINTENANCE
. Place the cartridge in the water container.
. Position the cartridge, numbered ring facing up.
. Use the black tightening accessory, supplied with the cartridge, to position and screw the cartridge
in place.

TIPS AND TRICKS
Water quality has a strong inuence on the quality of the aromas. Limescale and chlorine can alter the taste of
coffee. To preserve the aromas of your coffee, we recommend you to use the Claris – Aqua Filter System cartridge,
or bottled water with dry residues below 800 mg/L (look on the bottle’s label). See the “FILTER AND WATER
HARDNESS” section.
When preparing drinks, we recommend using preheated cups (by running them under hot water) of an appropriate
size for your desired quantity.
The roasted coffee beans can lose their aroma if they are not protected. We advise that you use an amount of
beans equivalent to your consumption over the next 2-3 days and that you choose 250 g bags.
The quality of the coffee beans is variable and tastes are subjective. Arabica will give you ne, oral aromas, while
Robusta, which has a higher caffeine content, is more bitter and full-bodied. It is common to mix the two types of
coffee to get a more balanced coffee. Contact your roaster for further advice.
We do not recommend using oily and caramelised beans as these can damage the machine.
The neness of the ground beans inuences the strength of the aromas and the quality of the crema. The more
nely ground the beans, the smoother the crema. Grinding can also be adapted for the desired drink.
INTUITIVE LIGHT INDICATOR
WHAT DOES THE INTUITIVE LIGHT INDICATOR DO?
Your Intuition machine features smart, bright technology to make your day easier: Intuitive Light Indicator (J). This
technology has a dual functionality:
1. The machine automatically detects and controls the levels of coffee beans, water and coffee grounds.
When you need to ll or empty your containers, or when maintenance is required, the red light alert comes on,
signalling you to follow the information on the screen.
2. You can also customise your experience using the Intuitive Light Indicator. You can choose a colour for each prole.
When a prole has been selected, the Intuitive Light Indicator will change to the colour belonging to that prole,
making everything simple to understand and ensuring super-fast and intuitive navigation. See the chapter entitled
“MY PROFILE”.
