How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and prepare for water spillage.

  • Clean pump filter: Open the pump access, drain water, and remove debris from the filter and pump housing.
  • Check hose height: Ensure the drain hose is installed at the correct height per Amica instructions to prevent backflow or siphoning.
  • Inspect hose: Straighten kinks and remove any obstructions. Replace damaged hoses.
  • Test pump: If residual water remains despite a clear system, the pump may be weak and should be replaced.
