How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the machine and remove the tank before cleaning up water.

  • Inspect tank outlet: Check the valve and rubber seal at the bottom of the tank for cracks or deformation.
  • Clean mating surfaces: Wipe the tank recess and connector on the machine to remove debris that may prevent sealing.
  • Test for leaks: Fill the tank and place it on a towel off the machine. If it drips from the outlet, replace the tank or outlet seal.
  • Reinsert correctly: Slide the tank straight in until fully seated. Avoid forcing it at an angle.
