How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit immediately if water is leaking near electrical components. Dry the area before further work.
Steps:
- Identify leak source: Remove the ice basket and inspect inside the cabinet for standing water. Then remove the rear or side panel to inspect hoses and the water reservoir.
- Check tank and drain: Remove the water tank and inspect for cracks. Ensure the drain plug (if present) is fully seated and the gasket is intact.
- Inspect hoses: Follow all silicone or plastic hoses from the tank to the pump and evaporator. Look for splits, loose clamps, or disconnections.
- Examine pump housing: Check around the water circulation pump for signs of leakage. Tighten hose clamps or replace the pump if the housing is cracked.
- Replace damaged parts: Install new hoses, gaskets, or tank if any are compromised. Use food-grade silicone tubing compatible with Caso specifications.
- Test for leaks: Refill with water and run a short cycle while observing for drips before fully reassembling.
