How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and close the water supply valve immediately. Mop up spilled water to prevent slipping.
- Inspect external hoses: Check the inlet and drain hoses for cracks, loose connections, or damaged gaskets. Tighten or replace as needed.
- Check water tank seating: Ensure the tank is fully inserted and not tilted. Overfilling can cause overflow.
- Open cabinet: Remove panels and look for signs of internal leaks around the reservoir, pump, and tubing. Replace any cracked plastic parts or hoses.
- Test after repair: Dry all areas, then restore water and power. Observe for leaks during a full cycle.
