How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit and remove the clean water tank. Mop up any spilled water to avoid slipping.

  • Inspect tank outlet: Check the rubber O-ring or gasket at the tank outlet for cracks, flattening, or missing sections. Replace if damaged.
  • Clean valve: Press the valve pin gently to ensure it moves freely. Rinse under warm water to remove debris.
  • Check for cracks: Examine the tank body and outlet neck for hairline cracks. Replace the tank if any are found.
  • Machine connector: Inspect the mating connector on the Vorwerk cleaner for damage or misalignment that could prevent proper sealing.
