Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the machine immediately if you see water near electrical parts or under the machine.
User-level checks:
- Inspect water tank: Remove the tank, fill it over a sink, and check for cracks or leaks. Inspect the outlet valve and O-ring for damage.
- Check seating: Reinsert the tank firmly to ensure a proper seal.
- Observe leak source: Place a dry paper towel under the machine and run a rinse cycle to see where water appears.
When to call a technician: If water appears from inside the chassis or from the back, an internal hose, fitting, or boiler seal is likely leaking and must be repaired by a professional.
