How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before tightening or adjusting components.
- Tighten fixings: Check all mounting screws for the heater, cover, and internal components. Tighten as needed.
- Inspect fan: On fan-assisted models, clean dust from the fan and ensure blades are not rubbing.
- Check element mounting: Ensure the heating element flange is secure and not vibrating against the tank or casing.
