What to do if steam flows slowly from Steam Wand on KitchenAid 5KES6503 Coffee Maker?

Why is the water light continuously blinking on my KitchenAid 5KES6503?
If the water light on your KitchenAid Coffee Maker is continuously blinking, ensure that the water tank has enough water and is properly assembled.
