Possible Causes

Loose tub-to-pump hose clamp, Cracked drain hose, Worn tub seal, Leaking water inlet connection inside cabinet

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit and shut off water supply. Be prepared for water spillage when opening panels.

Steps:

  • Inspect rear hoses: Pull the Café combo forward and check the inlet and drain hoses for drips at connections or visible cracks.
  • Check underside: Remove the lower front or rear panel and look for water trails or mineral deposits on hoses and around the pump.
  • Tighten clamps: Tighten any loose hose clamps on the tub-to-pump hose and drain pump outlet.

When to call a technician: If water appears to leak from the center of the tub or bearing area, a tub seal or bearing failure is likely and requires professional service.
