Water drips or pours from the spout even when not pouring (leaking spout).

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Overfilling above max line, Damaged spout weld or micro-crack, Warped kettle body from overheating

Safety first: Use caution with hot water; unplug if leak is severe.

Check fill level: Ensure you are not filling above the maximum line; tilt the kettle slightly to see if water reaches the lid area.
Inspect spout: With the kettle empty and dry, fill with a small amount of cold water and observe the spout area for seepage.
If a crack or weld issue is visible: Do not use the kettle. The stainless body must be replaced.
