Possible Causes
Blocked condenser drain channel, Cracked or loose condensate hose, Misfitted or overflowing water tank
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer. Mop up any water to avoid slipping.
Step-by-step checks:
- Check water tank: Ensure the tank is fully inserted and not overfilled. Empty it after each cycle if required.
- Clean condenser and drain: Remove the condenser and clean it thoroughly. Check the drain channel beneath it for lint clogs and rinse with warm water.
- Inspect hoses: Access the base and check the small hoses from the condenser to the sump and from the sump to the tank. Tighten clamps and replace any cracked hoses.
When to call a technician: If the cabinet or sump is cracked, or leaks persist, replacement parts and professional fitting are needed.
