Possible Causes

Water reservoir below minimum level, Reservoir not seated on base sensor, Faulty water level float or magnet, Level sensor in base malfunctioning

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker before removing the reservoir.

Steps:

  • Remove the reservoir, fill it above the MIN line, and reinstall it firmly.
  • Check for cracks or leaks in the reservoir that might prevent it from holding enough water.
  • Gently shake the reservoir to ensure the internal float moves freely. If stuck, soak in warm soapy water, rinse, and try again.
  • Wipe the base area where the reservoir sits to remove any debris that might prevent proper seating.

If the ADD WTR message remains even with a full, properly seated reservoir, the water level sensor or reservoir assembly may need replacement.
