10.0 Descaling
The SOLIS X 100 features an automatic descaling program that ensures
easy and effective descaling.
Depending on the hardness of the water (even if a water filter is used), the appli-
ance must be descaled regularly, at the latest every 4 – 6 months. In areas with
especially hard water, descaling will be necessary more often.
The control indicator (23b) reminds you that descaling is necessary.
Although you can still make coffee it is advisable to descale without
delay.
The water hardness can be adjusted as required in accordance with point 7.3.
