How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit immediately and move it away from electrical outlets. Dry any spilled water.

- Check cap and gasket: Inspect the tank cap O-ring or gasket for damage, deformation, or dirt. Clean and reseat it; replace if worn.
- Check valve: Ensure the spring-loaded valve on the tank bottom moves freely and seals properly when pressed.
