• Restores steam production when a faulty valve prevents steam generation
• Stops flow to prevent leaks when the valve fails to seal
• Works with the machine's control system to time steam delivery during cycles

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Handle connectors and hoses carefully; inspect seals and replace gaskets if damaged
