Why is my new MIDEA MDT24P3CST washing machine leaking from underneath and how can I resolve this issue?
Frequently Asked Questions - 21/04/2026
Response Notice-Facile

A leak under a new MIDEA MDT24P3CST washing machine can have several causes. Here are the main checks and solutions to perform:

1. Check the hose connections

  • Make sure that the water inlet and drain hoses are properly secured and tightened. A poorly adjusted connection can lead to a leak.
  • Check that the hoses are not damaged or punctured.

2. Inspect the door seal and drum

  • Examine the rubber seal around the door for tears, dirt, or objects stuck that could prevent a proper seal.
  • Check inside the drum to ensure that no objects are blocking the closure or causing a leak.

3. Check the filter and detergent drawer

  • A clogged or improperly installed filter can cause leaks. Clean it and reinstall it correctly.
  • Ensure that the detergent drawer is not cracked and fits properly.

4. Make sure the machine is level

  • An unlevel machine can cause water to flow under the appliance. Adjust the feet so that the machine is stable and perfectly horizontal.

5. Examine the base and underside of the machine

  • Look under the machine to identify the precise source of the leak.
  • If the leak comes from an internal component, this may indicate a manufacturing defect or an issue during installation.

If after these checks the leak persists, it is advisable to contact MIDEA customer service for appropriate technical assistance and to avoid worsening the problem.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS ARE VERY IMPORTANT

To prevent injury to the user or other people and property damage, the instructions shown here must be followed. Incorrect operation due to ignoring of instructions may cause harm or damage, including death.

The level of risk is shown by the following indications.

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS ARE VERY IMPORTANT - 1

This symbol indicates the possibility of death or serious injury.

WARNING

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - WARNING - 1

This symbol indicates the possibility of injury or damage to property.

CAUTION

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - CAUTION - 1

This symbol indicates the possibility of dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electrical shock is present that could result in death or serious injury.

WARNING

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - WARNING - 1

WARNING/GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug if provided with the appliance. If the plug will not fit the outlet, use a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. If this appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug, the plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

For a permanently connected appliance:

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - 1

WARNING

When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

  • Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
  • Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
  • Use only detergents or rinse/wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children.
  • When loading items to be washed:

  • Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal.

  • Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

  • Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked "Dishwasher Safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.

  • Items that are not dishwasher safe may melt and create a potential fire hazard.
  • Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
  • Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

  • Do not tamper with controls.

  • Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the dishwasher door, or dish racks.
  • To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher.
  • Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot-water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
  • Severe product damage and/or injury could result from the use of unqualified service technicians or non-original replacement parts. All repairs must be performed by a qualified service technician using only original equipment factory replacement parts.
  • Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
  • Do not use the dishwasher if it has a damaged power line or plug, and do not plug the dishwasher into a damaged outlet. Failure to observe these instructions may result in electrical shock.
  • This manual does not cover every possible condition or situation that may occur.
  • Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

HOW YOUR DISHWASHER CLEANS

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces.

The dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the multiple filters and spray arms. Soil particles are separated from the water and go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water.

The number of water fills will vary depending on the cycle selected.

BEFORE USING YOUR DISHWASHER

  1. Check the filters for debris that may have been introduced from the packaging or during installation. See the "Clean Filters" section in page 40.
  2. Add Rinse Aid. See "Proper Use of Rinse Aid" section in page 35.

USING YOUR NEW DISHWASHER

NOTE: To decrease cycle time and possibly improve performance, turn on the hot water faucet nearest to the dishwasher until the water runs hot. Turn off the water.

  1. Load dishwasher. See "Dishwasher Loading" section in page 18.
  2. Add detergent. See "Proper Use of Detergent" in page 34.

DISHWASHER USE

PROPER USE OF DETERGENT

IMPORTANT:

  • Use automatic dish washing detergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance. Dishwasher pods are recommended for optimal performance.
  • Add detergent just before starting a cycle. Ensure the detergent is dry before adding detergent. Wet detergent can stick to the detergent cup and have difficulty washing out.
  • Store detergent in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.

DETERGENT DISPENSER

  1. If the dispenser cover is closed, open it by pressing the button. The cover will slide open.

Detergent Cup

  1. Slide the dispenser cover to close it.

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - DETERGENT DISPENSER - 4

HOW MUCH DETERGENT TO USE

The amount of detergent to use depends on the soil level of your load, the type of detergent used and the hardness of your water.

  • If you use too little detergent, dishes won't be clean.
  • If you have soft water and use too much detergent, glassware can etch.

Water Hardness

Water hardness varies depending on your water source. For the best results, your dishwasher is designed to operate with water that has a hardness of no more than 7 grains per gallon. Test kits are available from all major appliance parts retail outlets. If your water has a hardness over 8 grains per gallon, you may consider installing a water softener or regularly use an additive to enhance the performance of your detergent.

PROPER USE OF RINSE AID

Rinse aid prevents water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. A small amount of the rinse aid is released into the final rinse water, which aids water to drain from the dishes.

Rinse aid greatly improves drying performance.

Your dishwasher is designed to use a LIQUID rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse aid.

RINSE AID DISPENSER

Under normal conditions, you will need to fill the rinse aid dispenser approximately once a month. Rinse aid is released through an opening in the dispenser. You do not need to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it.

  1. Open the dishwasher door.
  2. Flip rinse aid lid open.

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - RINSE AID DISPENSER - 1

  1. Pour rinse aid into the dispenser until the sight window indicates FULL.

NOTE: Do NOT overfill. Excess rinse rid can overflow during the wash cycle.

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - RINSE AID DISPENSER - 2

  1. You can adjust the amount of the rinse aid released during the rinse. The higher the number, the greater the amount of rinse aid released.

  2. If your glassware has spots following the cycle, increase the rinse aid setting.
    If your glassware has streaks after the cycle, decrease the rinse aid setting.

Rinse Aid Setting Method:

1) Open the door and turn on the dishwasher
2) Within 60 seconds, press and hold the MY WASH button for 5 seconds to enter setting mode. The Low Rinse Aid indicator will flash, and the current level will display. The default level is d5, which is the highest level.
3) Press the MY WASH button to cycle through the levels:

" d5 d1 d2 d3 d4 d5.

4) If no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds or power off, the selected level is saved, and the system exits the settings mode.

  1. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.
  2. Close the rinse aid door.

If you have doubts about washing a particular item, check with the dishware manufacturer to make sure it is dishwasher safe.

DISHWASHER CARE

CLEANING

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

  • In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that is necessary to clean outside of your dishwasher.
  • Clean the stainless steel door and handle regularly with a clean, soft cloth to remove debris.

IMPORTANT: Do not use appliance wax, polish, bleach, or products containing chlorine to clean the stainless steel door.

  • Gently clean the control panel with a clean, soft cloth.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

  • The tub is made of stainless steel and is designed to resist rust and corrosion if the dishwasher is scratched or dented.
  • Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces, especially just beneath the door area.
  • Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. Wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it may cause foaming or create suds.
  • Clean the steel inner door and tub with a clean, soft damp cloth.
  • Using a damp cloth, clean around the door gasket regularly to remove food particles.

CLEANING THE FILTERS

Your dishwasher has a multi-filter system, which helps you dishwasher perform better using less water and less energy. The features on your dishwasher may vary from the drawings shown below.

Check and clean the filters regularly for best performance.

  1. Remove the lower dishwasher rack.
  2. Rotate the Cylinder Filter counterclockwise a quarter turn and lift up to remove.

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - CLEANING THE FILTERS - 1

MIDEA MDT24P3CST - CLEANING THE FILTERS - 3

Micro Filter

  1. Inspect both the Fine Filter and the Micro Filter for debris, and then clean them by holding the filters under slow running warm water.

NOTE: A stiff, plastic bristle brush may be needed to remove some debris.

  1. Reinstall the filters in reverse order making sure the Cylinder Filter locks into place.

DRAIN AIR GAP

Check the drain air gap anytime your dishwasher isn't draining well. Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. If a drain is clogged, a drain air gap prevents water from backing up into the dishwasher.

The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the dishwasher.

NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.

To Clean the Drain Air Gap:

Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher. Follow the cleaning instructions provided by the manufacturer.

With most types:

  1. Turn off the dishwasher.
  2. Lift off the metal cover, and then unscrew the plastic cap.
  3. Clean the plastic cap with a toothpick.

STORING

STORING FOR THE SUMMER

Protect your dishwasher during the summer months by turning off the water supply and power supply to the dishwasher.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

ARBITRATION CLAUSE. IMPORTANT. PLEASE REVIEW THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

(a) Parties: This arbitration clause (this "Arbitration Clause") affects your rights against Midea and any of its affiliates or employees or agents, successors, or assigns, all of whom together are referred to below as "we" or "us" for ease of reference.

(b) ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT: EXCEPT AS STATED BELOW, ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OF US SHALL BE DECIDED BY NEUTRAL, BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. "Dispute" will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable by law. It includes any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or relating to your purchase of this Product, any warranty upon the Product, or the Product's condition. It also includes determination of the scope or applicability of this Arbitration Clause. The arbitration requirement applies to claims in contract and tort, pursuant to statute, or otherwise.

(c) CLASS-ARBITRATION WAIVER: ARBITRATION IS HANDLED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US OR WE AGAINST YOU, OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. YOU AND WE ALSO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS.

(d) Discovery and Other Rights: Discovery and rights to appeal in arbitration are generally more limited than in a lawsuit. This applies to both you and us. Other rights that you or we would have in court may not be available in arbitration. Please read this Arbitration Clause and consult the rules of the arbitration organizations listed below for more information.

(e) SMALL CLAIMS COURT OPTION: YOU MAY CHOOSE TO LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OF US IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, IF THE DISPUTE MEETS ALL REQUIREMENTS TO BE HEARD IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT.

(f) Governing Law: For residents of the United States, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) rather than by state law concerning arbitration. For residents of Canada, the procedures and effect of the arbitration will be governed by the applicable arbitration law of the province in which you purchased your Product. The law governing your substantive warranty rights and other claims will be the law of the state or province in which you purchased your Product. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitration award.

(g) Rules of the Arbitration: If the amount in controversy is less than 250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a single arbitrator. If the amount in controversy is greater than or equal to 250,000, the arbitration will be decided by a panel of three arbitrators. The arbitrator(s) will be chosen pursuant to the rules of the administering arbitration organization. United States residents may choose JAMS (1920 Main Street, Ste. 300, Irvine, CA 92614, www.jamsadr.com), or, subject to our approval, any other arbitration organization. In addition, Canadian residents may choose the ADR Institute of Canada (234 Eglinton Ave. East, Suite 405, Toronto, Ontario, M4P 1K5, www.amic.org). These organizations' rules can be obtained by contacting the organization or visiting its website. If the chosen arbitration organization's rules conflict with this Arbitration Clause, the provisions of this Arbitration Clause control. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on all parties.
(h) Location of the Arbitration Hearing: Unless applicable law provides otherwise, the arbitration hearing for United States residents will be conducted in the federal judicial district in which you reside (in your hometown area) or, for Canadian residents, in the province in which you reside, and, if you choose, will be in-person.
(i) Costs of the Arbitration: Each party is responsible for its own attorney, expert, and other costs and fees unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, and unless applicable law requires otherwise, if you are a consumer under the JAMS rules or the rules of another agreed upon arbitration administrator, Midea will pay or reimburse you for all reasonable fees or costs to the extent required by law or the applicable arbitration administrator's rules. Whether or not required by law or such rules, if you prevail at arbitration on any claim against Midea, Midea will reimburse you for any reasonable fees paid to the arbitration administrator in connection with the arbitration proceedings. Under no circumstances will Midea seek from you payment or reimbursement of any reasonable fees that Midea incurs in connection with the arbitration. If you are required to advance any fees or costs to JAMS or other agreed upon arbitration administrator, but you ask Midea to do so in your stead, Midea will consider and respond to your request.
(j) Survival and Enforceability of this Arbitration Clause: This Arbitration Clause shall survive the expiration or termination, or any transfer, of the warranty on your Product. If any part of this Arbitration Clause, except waivers of class-action rights, is found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of this clause and the warranty shall remain enforceable. If, in a case in which class-action allegations have been made, the waiver of class-action rights under this warranty is found to be unenforceable with respect to any part of the dispute, the parts of the dispute as to which the waiver of class-action rights have been found unenforceable will be severed and will proceed in court without reference or application of this Arbitration Clause. Any remaining parts will proceed in arbitration.

QUEBEC RESIDENTS

The arbitration provisions of this warranty shall not apply to residents of Quebec.
