Safety: Keep face and hands away from the float valve during operation.

• 1. Clean float valve: Remove the float valve pin and silicone cap. Clean all parts and the valve seat in the lid.
• 2. Inspect silicone cap: Replace if cracked, hardened, or misshapen.
• 3. Reassemble correctly: Install the float valve components in the correct order as per Toshiba manual.
• 4. Test with water: Run a water-only pressure cycle and observe the float area for leaks.

Do not plug the float valve hole; it is a critical safety component.
