Water priming / air lock — pump runs but no water

You can hear the pump but no water comes out — this is almost always an air lock in the line.

What to do

  1. Run priming: Service Menu → Pumping water until water flows steadily.
  2. If that doesn’t help, remove/blow through the tube to clear the air, then reconnect it.
  3. Check the hose isn’t pinched anywhere.
  4. Check the connections at the tank/chiller — air can be drawn in there.

This is for water that’s already connected. For installation and first connection, see the water-connection pages.
