How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off water supply if a continuous leak occurs.
- Bleed air: Dispense several liters of water continuously to remove air from the system after filter changes or installation.
- Check for debris: Replace the water filter if it is old or clogged.
- Observe valve behavior: If water continues to flow for more than a few seconds after releasing the lever, the inlet valve may be sticking and should be replaced.
- Inspect lever: Ensure the dispenser lever returns fully to its rest position and is not obstructed.
