What WATER CIRCUIT EMPTY
actually means.
Expect it on day one, after the tank has been drained dry, or whenever air gets into the lines. OK starts a priming run that pushes water to the spout and ends by itself once the flow evens out. When it recurs, Fisher & Paykel's first suspect is a tank sitting short of its stop.

What to do when WATER CIRCUIT EMPTY shows on the coffee machineKind of codeWater and tank
The machine asked for water and did not get what it expected: the tank is empty, sits off its seat or has a float the sensor cannot see, air is trapped in the line, or the flowmeter counted too little water passing in the time allowed. On a plumbed unit the same message can mean a closed shutoff, a kinked supply hose or a clogged inlet valve. Reseating a full tank and running a rinse clears the simple cases; a pump that hums with nothing moving is a visit.
Usually leads toCoffee machine pump repair
Testing and replacing the pump that drives water through the coffee, with the flowmeter that counts each cup and the valves beside it.
Shows up asWhat a Coffee Machine Error Code or Warning Symbol Means
A coffee machine error code may show as a short string of letters and numbers, a flashing symbol for water, grounds or the brew unit, a short sentence on a text display, or a machine that stops with one light blinking.

What not to do
WATER CIRCUIT EMPTY is not the same as an empty tank, though an empty tank can lead to it. It also does not mean the pump has failed on the first appearance.
