              Why does my aspara Nature keep telling me to add water when the tank is full?

              • On the very first setup, aspara Nature may need up to 4 hours for the water sensor to adjust once the tank is filled to the max position. Once the sensor has adjusted the add water message will disappear.
              • If you have added too much water and its over leaked then empty the tray of all water, refill the tank to max level, ensure the device is updated with latest firmware, wait up to 4 hours for the add water message to disappear.
