If your machine requires a descaling cycle, the machine will emit a descaling alarm:
In operation mode, the steam button flashes red and both coffee buttons constantly
light up white.
In this case, the machine can still be used, but none of the settings (except for the
coffee quantity) are available at this moment.
ATTENTION: In the event of an alarm, you should descale your machine immediately
in order to prevent the functionality from being reduced or the coffee quality from
degrading. Repairs to the espresso machine relative to limescale problems are not
covered by the warranty if the descaling procedure described below is not performed
regularly.
Solis recommends descaling your Solis Barista Perfetta Plus espresso machine with a
mixture of a descaling agent and water. Please use only for espresso makers suitable
descaling agents (e.g. URNEX Dezcal powder) for descaling the machine. Damages
caused by the use of improper descaling agent are not covered by warranty.
When the descaling alarm is displayed, please proceed as follows:
1. Remove the water tank from the appliance and empty it out. Remove the MAVEA
water filter from the tank. Follow the instructions for use of the descaling agent
and put the descaling solution in the water tank. Place the water tank back on the
rear of the appliance. Empty the drip tray and reinsert drip tray and grid.
2. Place a large container under the brewing head and place the empty milk jug
under the steam/hot water wand.
3. While the descaling alarm is displayed, press the Prog. button, now the Prog.
button and the steam button flash red.
4. Now, press the steam button to start the automatic descaling program. The
Prog. button and the steam button flash quickly. The descaling program lasts
less than 15 minutes with few cycles. During one of these cycles, turn on the
steam/hot water control (M) to allow steam to escape so that the steam wand
is also descaled. Then, turn the control back to the OFF position. During the
pauses, the tank can be emptied, making it possible for the tank to hold less
than 33.8 fl oz to make sure that the tank can stand on the drip grid. Drip tray
and grid must not be removed.
5. After these cycles, the descaling process ends, a double signal sounds, the Prog.
button and the steam button flash more slowly again. Now the machine has to
be rinsed to remove the descaling residues.
