4. Care and cleaning
Keeping your SOLIS 1,2,3 SPRESSO clean and well
maintained will ensure optimum coffee quality and
prolong the service life of your appliance.
Always switch your appliance off and unplug at the
mains for cleaning.
4.1 Clean the water tank (3), drip tray, cup grille (2)
and waste coffee container (1) daily using hot
water and a nonscouring detergent if needed.
4.2 We recommend cleaning the brewing unit on a
monthly basis. The brewing unit is very easy to
remove.
4.3 Open brewing unit cover (8). Open brewing
unit lock (Fig.4)
4.4 Turn brewing unit to the left as far as it will go
(Fig.5).Carefully pull the brewing unit forward,
keeping it level (Fig.6). Clean with hot water
only. Dry brewing unit.
4.5 Carefully replace clean brewing unit.
4.6 Shut the brewing unit cover.
5. Descaling
Depending on the hardness of your water supply,
the machine should be descaled regularly ( even
if you use a water filter ), i.e. every 4-6 months
at least. In areas with very hard water, descaling
should be more frequent.
Descaling should only be carried out using
the SOLIS tablets made especially for the
SOLIS 1,2,3 SPRESSO automatic portion machine.
Important:
Regular descaling helps to prevent
expensive repairs. Damage due to failure to carry
out the required descaling, improper handling or
non-compliance with these descaling instructions is
not covered by the guarantee.
Please note that you must not, under any circum-
stances, use vinegar or any conventional descaling
agents containing amidosulfuric acid as these
would destroy the plastic.
