Troubleshooting: “Empty Water Tank” Error
Troubleshooting: “Empty Water Tank” Error
Why This Error Occurs
The machine will show “Empty Water Tank” when it detects no water flow regardless of whether it uses a tank or plumbed-in connection.
This message is triggered by:
- No water in the tank (if using water tank)
- Incorrect water source setting (e.g. set to water tank when plumbed)
- Mains water supply is turned off or disrupted
- Kinked or disconnected water inlet hose
- Faulty water level sensor or float
Incorrect water source setting (e.g. set to water tank when plumbed)
Step 1: Confirm Water Supply
- If plumbed in: ensure the tap is open and the hose is not kinked or disconnected
- If using a tank: make sure it’s full and seated properly
Step 2: Check Water Source Setting
- Access the service menu
- Navigate to Water Supply Mode (log a ticket to support if a code is required)
-
Set to:
- Plumbed/Mains if connected to mains water
-
Tank if using the internal tank
⚠️ If set incorrectly, the machine will trigger false errors
Step 3: Restart the Machine
- Power off completely
- Wait 10 seconds
- Turn back on and let it reinitialize
Step 4: Run a Rinse or Test Cycle
- Run a rinse or hot water cycle to test for restored flow
If the Error Persists
- There may be a sensor fault, scale build-up, or an internal issue
