10.0 Decalcifying
Even if a water filter is used, the appli-
ance should be decalcified regularly in
accordance with the hardness of your
local water and, in any event, at least
every four to six months.
10.1 For decalcification, it is best
to use SOLIPOL, a product specially
designed for this purpose.
10.2 With the appliance switched
off, fill the water container in proporti-
ons of one part water and one part
SOLIPOL (0.5 litres of water and 0,5
litres of SOLIPOL).
10.3 Turn on the hot water/steam
rotary knob, activate the pump
switch and place a container under
the steam jet. Now, turn the main
switch ON and let water run from the
jet for about 1 minute.
10.4 Turn the main switch OFF
and leave the decalcifying product to
take effect for about 10 minutes.
10.5 Repeat 10.3 and 10.4 twice.
Then, rinse out the water container
thoroughly and fill with fresh water.
10.6 Turn the main switch ON and
rinse the appliance out thoroughly by
allowing the fresh water (approx. 2 lit-
res) to run out through the hot water
nozzle. This will ensure that nothing
remains which might affect the taste
of the coffee. The SOLIS CREMA is
now ready for use again.
IMPORTANT: Regular decalcification
will protect your machine from the
need for expensive repairs. It should
be noted that damage caused by failu-
re to carry out the necessary decalcifi-
cation, by misuse or by not following
the above instructions IS NOT
COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.
Vinegar must not be used for decal-
cifying purposes as it will damage the
appliance.
