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.
