How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit and empty the dirty water tank before inspection.

  • Inspect tank and lid: Check for cracks in the tank body and lid. Replace if any structural damage is found.
  • Check lid gasket: Examine the rubber gasket around the lid. Clean it and the mating surfaces. Replace the gasket if it is torn or permanently compressed.
  • Ensure proper seating: Reinstall the tank, making sure it clicks or locks into place and the lid is fully closed.
  • Clean tank vent: Locate the small vent hole in the lid and clear any blockage to prevent pressure buildup and leaks.
