Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the machine immediately and do not operate it while leaking. Risk of electric shock and internal damage.
Step 1 – External checks:
- Remove and empty the drip tray and water tank; dry the area.
- Refill the tank and observe if water leaks without the machine running (tank or tank seal issue).
Step 2 – Internal inspection (advanced):
- Remove the housing (unplug first).
- Visually inspect all hoses, connectors, and the thermoblock while running a rinse cycle.
- Look for drips or sprays of water.
Step 3 – Replace leaking components:
- Replace cracked hoses and worn O-rings with heat-resistant food-grade parts.
- If the thermoblock or ceramic valve body is cracked or corroded, replace the entire assembly.
Note: Because leaks can damage electronics, consider professional service if you are not experienced.
