Possible Causes
Cracked water reservoir, Loose drain plug or hose, Leaking water pump housing, Overfilled tank causing overflow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and mop up spilled water to prevent slipping and electrical hazards.
- Inspect reservoir: Remove the ice basket and check the water tank for visible cracks or seams leaking when filled.
- Check drain plug: If your model has a drain plug or hose at the rear or bottom, ensure it is fully inserted and the gasket is intact.
- Do not overfill: Fill only to the MAX line. Overfilling can cause water to spill into areas not designed to hold it.
- Examine pump and hoses: Remove the bottom cover (if accessible) and inspect the pump housing and silicone hoses for drips while the unit is running. Tighten clamps or replace cracked hoses.
Replace the water reservoir or pump assembly if cracks or permanent leaks are found.
