Troubleshooting

Heat press not turning on

Check that the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet and that the main power switch is in the 'on' position. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Uneven heat distribution or poor transfer quality

Ensure the pressure is set correctly and evenly. Clean the heat plate and silicone pad. Verify that the item and sublimation paper are positioned correctly on the platen.

Digital display not working

Unplug the machine, wait for 30 seconds, and plug it back in. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Alarm not sounding at the end of the timer

Check the timer settings to ensure it is properly configured. If the alarm remains non-functional, it may require servicing.

Sublimation paper sticking to the heat plate

Ensure the Teflon sheet is correctly placed between the sublimation paper and the heat plate. Use a fresh Teflon sheet if the current one is damaged or worn. Verify the temperature and time settings are appropriate for the material.
