Water leaking from the bottom or sides of the Gastroback ice maker onto the countertop.

Safety first: Unplug the unit and wipe up any spilled water to avoid slipping or electrical hazards.

Steps:

• Check reservoir: Remove the water tank and inspect for cracks or damage. Ensure the cap or valve at the bottom is sealing properly.
• Inspect seating: Reinsert the reservoir firmly until it clicks or sits flush. A misaligned tank can leak around the seal.
• Check for overfill: Do not fill above the MAX line. Excess water can overflow internally.
• Internal hose check (if accessible): Remove the cover and inspect hoses from the reservoir to the pump and tray. Tighten any loose clamps and reseat push-fit connectors.

If the reservoir is cracked or seals are damaged, replace the reservoir assembly. Persistent internal leaks may require professional disassembly.
