  If your Steamfast Kitchen Appliance unit isn't heating up and the steam dial does not illuminate when turned to the 'ON' position, first, ensure the power cord is securely plugged into an electrical outlet. If it still doesn't work, check your household circuit breaker or ground fault interrupter and reset it, or replace the fuse if necessary. If problems persist, unplug the unit immediately and contact Consumer Service for assistance, as the unit may be damaged.

  If you're experiencing excessive gurgling in the hose and steam nozzle, or water is dripping from the steam nozzle of your Steamfast Kitchen Appliances, it's likely due to condensation buildup. Some gurgling is normal during steaming. However, for excessive gurgling or dripping, point the steam nozzle downward and shake it thoroughly to remove excess water droplets. Alternatively, extend the hose vertically to allow water to drain back into the water reservoir. To prevent condensation buildup, periodically straighten the hose during use.

  If your Steamfast Kitchen Appliances unit fails to heat up, but the steam dial does illuminate when turned to the 'ON' position, the issue might be due to a lack of water in the unit. Fill the unit with water. Alternatively, mineral build-up in the unit can cause this problem. If problems persist, unplug the unit immediately and contact Consumer Service for assistance, as the unit may be damaged.

  If your Steamfast Kitchen Appliance isn't heating up, and the steam dial does not illuminate when turned to the “ON” position, there are several potential causes. Ensure the power cord is properly plugged into an electrical outlet. Check your household circuit breaker or ground fault interrupter to see if it has tripped, or if a fuse has blown; reset the breaker/interrupter or replace the fuse. If the issue persists, the unit may be damaged and require repair. Immediately cease usage, unplug it, and contact Consumer Service for assistance.

  Excessive gurgling and water dripping from the steam nozzle in your Steamfast Kitchen Appliance can be caused by condensation build-up inside the steam nozzle or hose. Some gurgling is normal during steaming. If it's excessive, point the steam nozzle downward and shake it to remove excess water droplets, or extend the hose vertically to allow water to drain back into the water reservoir. To prevent condensation build-up, straighten the hose periodically during use. Another cause could be mineral build-up in the unit; refer to the Mineral Build-Up section for details.
