How do you empty the water container? I could not find anything in the manual. I tipped the whole canister over to do it but it is heavy.

You got it right! that is one of the reasons I rated the product poorly. You have to lift a heavy piece of equipment, remove the lid, and then expose yourself to being burned.

We read somewhere that you can leave the water in it. I would assume because you used distilled water there is not all the rust and sediments in the water to cause damage to the stainless steel tank.

I always just wait for it to cool and tip it...you could also just keep pulling the trigger until all the water is out and I always store it with the cap off

Yes it is heavy and I decided that you really don't have to. If the remaining water was that hot and it stays sealed, no air gets in and it shouldn't ever get moldy or anything. I don't see why you can't just leave the water there until the next time you use it.

Unfortunately screw the top where you put the water in at and dump it . One of my main fitting broke the first time I used it :(.And the company won't back it up.

Unscrew the top where there water goes in and dump it OK ! I broke one of my fittings where the O-rings are so I can't use mine the company doesn't back up are respond there worthless.

You have to take the tank off and turn it upside down. Then unscrew lid and fill. Really no problem but two gallons is fairly heavy. I dropped the slippery wet tank and it cracked but repaired it with superglue. Unit works well. Recommended.

The casinster near the handle collects the dirt. There is a red release tab near the side of the canister. Just pull that back. It will open the back of the canister so that you can dump what has been collected. The opening will snap shut after emptying.

I would recommend you pour straight vinegar nt the bottom of the unit and let it sit for 2 hoursThen put some water in the container and see if it turns onDo not empty the vinegar from the bottom let it run through Sort of like when you clean your coffee pot I do not use distiller water but I do regularly use the white vinegar Mine runs like a charm but it will shut down if residue builds up

remove the reservoir at the bottom and then disengage the little stopper inside. it does not hold much but enough.

Most likely you are overfilling the water container. Fill it up to 1/2 inch from the top.

Try using a cotton swab and a little bit of rubbing alcohol to clean it out. And then wash the water canister in really hot soapy water. Rinse out really well and then diffuse just hot water a couple times before adding any other oils. I hope this helps.

There are 2 ways to empty it. There's a clip on the bottom you can open and empty and the top unlatches and twists off to empty as well. I prefer using the top approach.

So once u remove the "bag" portion undue the clip at the bottom dump into your trash then grab the iner plastic filter twist and remove to fully clear canister. Also unclip to filter at the bottom of the cans where it clips in and shake it out the rinse with water. Hour this helps it took me forever to find all the parts that come apart

I checked the one I have and no it doesn't empty from the bottom. I am holding it as a gift so I don't know how is best to empty it other than to just dump it out.

Reseat the bin containing the water. You probably didn't push hard enough or align it properly. After a couple of times you'll get used to it!

was told by Dolce Gusto customer service that we should never leave water in the tank, in other words, just put enough water to brew coffee and then remove tank, empty it and replace. Mine's been taken away today and I won't be seeing it for nearly a month. Hope they can fix problem as I have a large stock of coffee that cost me a lot of money.

If you are referring to the clogged debris getting trapped up inside the canister, it is often difficult to empty. I usually have to knock the opened canister against my garbage can numerous times hoping it will eventually come free.

Twist the top half about 1/4 turn until it comes out. I always empty the water as soon as I finish to make sure it is fresh to work the next time

Only thing I can think of from reading other reviews, is that the water level is high. You have to empty out the water container on the bottom is all that I can think of.

I had the same problem. The flapper closes too fast. Try holding on to the lever for a couple of seconds to empty the tank.

The cleaning solution has grey tabs on the sides you squeeze. Once that is removed the dirty water tank is below and slides right out. Unscrew dark gray disk to empty.
