Bosch BRITA INTENZA Instruction Manual page 6

Dear Coffee Connoisseur,
when you are preparing a flavoursome
coffee drink, the water you use plays an
important role. After all, it accounts for
about 98% of a cup of coffee.
That is why we recommend you use the
BRITA INTENZA water filter cartridge, which
is designed specially for use with your
appliance. It allows the flavour to develop
optimally and also gives your appliance
maximum protection from limescale.
Using the BRITA INTENZA water filter
cartridge not only reduces the calcium
content, but also filters substances which
impair the aroma and taste of your coffee,
such as chlorine, out of your tap water.
As the calcium content of water has a
significant influence on the aroma and the
‚crema' of your coffee, the BRITA 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.
1 Dip the test strip in the tap water for
10 seconds then wait for about 1 minute
before checking the result.
2 Now compare the water hardness
levels:
□
Levels 1 and 2 – ring setting A
□
Level 3
□
Level 4
3 Record the test results for future filter
changes by ticking the appropriate box.
The BRITA 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.
Hold the water filter
cartridge under cold
water and gently agitate
it to remove all the 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.
