Ensure the unit is plugged in and switched on. Check if the water tank is filled and properly seated. Inspect the power cord for damage. If the problem persists, contact Cuisinart customer service for assistance.
Clean the water tank and drip tray weekly with warm soapy water. Additionally, descale the unit every three months or as needed based on water hardness in your area.
