Possible Causes

Cracked water tank, Damaged tank valve seal, Leaking inlet connector O-ring, Hairline crack in housing around tank area

Safety: Unplug the machine and remove it from power if any leak is observed.

Check tank for cracks: Fill the tank and place it on a dry surface away from the machine. If it leaks, replace the tank.
Inspect tank valve: Look for damage or debris around the valve. Clean gently and test again.
Observe inlet area: With the tank installed, check for slow seepage around the inlet. If present, an internal seal is likely failing.

Persistent leaks from the back or side require opening the machine and replacing seals or connectors.
