Possible Causes

Clogged internal drain, Ice buildup blocking drain channel, Unit not level front-to-back, Cracked ice tray or reservoir

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit and mop up water to prevent slipping.

  • Level front-to-back: Slightly raise the front feet so water flows toward the rear drain, as specified by Indesit.
  • Clear drain channel: Access the internal drain under the evaporator or tray. Remove ice and debris, then flush with warm water.
  • Inspect tray and reservoir: Look for cracks or warping that allow water to spill over the front. Replace damaged parts.
  • Check door seal: Ensure the door or lid closes fully and the gasket is intact, preventing condensation and drips.
