Possible Causes
Clogged internal drain channel, Misaligned water tank, Cracked drain pan, Improperly installed drain hose
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before tilting or opening it. Water may spill.
- Check tank seating: Remove and reinstall the water tank, ensuring it is fully inserted and level.
- Clean drain channel: Access the evaporator drain tray and channel. Flush with warm water and a soft brush to remove slime and debris.
- Inspect drain pan: Look for cracks or warping in the plastic pan beneath the evaporator. Replace if leaking.
- Verify hose installation: If using continuous drain, ensure the hose is firmly attached to the drain outlet, slopes downward with no kinks, and the tank is correctly positioned per Panasonic instructions.
- Test for leaks: Pour a small amount of water into the drain tray and observe the flow path to confirm proper drainage.
