Safe checks to try

  1. 01

    Record the exact error and model

    Observation only

    Record LG Add, the full model label and the cycle/mode. Manufacturer meaning: Steam water tank needs filling. Check that the published source applies to your series.

    What to look for: The exact model prevents using instructions for a different appliance family.

  2. 02

    Check water availability

    Observation only

    Check a nearby tap and make sure the visible appliance supply tap is open. Do not dismantle inlet connections.

    What to look for: If water is unavailable, investigate the home supply first.

  3. 03

    Look for an accessible hose kink

    Observation only

    Visually inspect the external inlet hose without moving a heavy appliance.

    What to look for: A repeating code needs a model-specific inlet/valve check.

For a qualified service technician

An authorized technician should assess the component associated with 'Steam water tank needs filling' and verify the relevant signals and protections against the exact model service manual. Internal electrical and refrigerant work is not suitable for home repair.

Do not open electrical panels, sealed refrigerant lines, gas connections, heating elements or powered mechanisms at home.

After the issue is addressed
