Since we r in CA. I just empty all the water out of it and let it sit out in the sun. You could also use a blow dryer.

You'd have to leave it open on counter to air dry that's the only way I've found.

It did that recently so I turned it off and cleaned it out and dried it thoroughly. Then I turned it back on and ran the water through (to clean with hot water) and then put the pod in and it didn't do that again. Also make sure you have adequate water in there. I always try to fill it to the fill line.

I am not sure how to take it off the tank. Is that what you mean? Mine is woking good still. But I have a little tip that you might try. Let pure some oil (cooking oil, any kind) around the subject that you want to remove it. Make sure the oil insinuate between your tank and the light handle then take a thin knife , using a top point cleave them little by little from the outside in add more oil as need. The oil help to remove the glue. Remember the tank is glass so you have to be calm and patient when doing this job. Hope this help and hope my English is well enough.

In addition to regularly cleaning the tank with a water-vinegar solution, I've found the best way to reach the tight spots when there's mold or some sort of buildup is to pour in around a quarter cup of rice (a heavier grain like sushi rice) and then some water, then shake the tank like crazy. I spent hours trying to reach around the inside of my penguin tank with tools from a child's toothbrush to q-tips. After my last use, I didn't properly empty the tank, so I had a good film of mold on the bottom of the tank. With this rice and water combo, I was able to essentially scrub out the mold. As far as I can tell, it's all gone. Just make sure to get all of the rice out by rinsing, and to be sure I killed all of the bacteria, I rinsed the tank with hydrogen peroxide.

Had 3 filters total. Would soak them in lemon juice for a period of time while using others. After a week or so would rinse it thoroughly under running fresh water. Would pat it dry and place on my water heater to completely dry. Hope this works for you...jmm, San Franciscohe top of my wate

Just pull out the tank and their is a rubber attach stopper you pull out. Very simple .

I don't know. I do not have that problem but I empty the tank quite often. Even though I live in a pretty dry climate I still drain the tank every couple weeks.

Fill a bowl with rubbing alcohol. Take the glass pieces apart and submerge. Soak. This should help. Some thicker oils are harder to clean. I run lemon through mine after a clean.

No, the easiest solution is to empty the tank and slide it under. Unfortunately, I discovered that after filling my tank with 30 gallons of water. :-)

I've only rinsed mine & air dried. If it's just an odor rather than soiled, you might try sealing it in a plastic bag with a few pieces of charcoal for a day or two. That had worked for me with lingering fish smells on other gear.

I just let it dry out. It's on a shelf with towels - dry. I dampened it a few weeks ago when we had hot weather, and it worked fine.

You can fill the tank with any water or detergent/soap. You can use plain water if you want. One tank is the clean water/solution, the other sucks it all up, so you can use any temperature. This will not heat any water, just sprays what you put in.

This message shows up when the tank is not properly seated or you are out of cleaning solution. To remove the tank, press down on the silver handle just below the "power" and "clean" buttons and the tank will lift off the base. Empty the compartment labled "dirty" and refill the tank labled "clean" with fresh cleaning solution. Reinsert tank and press down until it clicks shut. I hope this helps. John

Steam does not come out if you are not pulling the trigger. The pad however is wet so getting it completely dry isn't really an option unless you put on a new pad. The other day I dropped the cleaner tank and didn't have an issue using it to help clean that up.

I keep mine clean AND DRY all the time. I would soak it in a mild bleach solution, rinse well and dry it out completely.

You got yours to work? How'd you do that? Haha I can't get mine to soak up anything. I know it's humid too!
