First, I'm not a Saeco technician.But I've worked on similar Saeco machines.
- Water not getting to machine or not sensing that the water tank is already filled.
* There usually some type of float near to middle of the water tank. It's usually white or colored plastic. This 'float' needs to move freely up-down to 'sense' the filled tank. clean the tank and shake it -note the movement of this float. It will need further cleaning if it's stuck (or you will have to replace tank if it's crudded up).
* Re-install tank and fill with filtered water. Turn machine off, count to 15 then turn on again. This usually turns on pump to add water to inner tank. If this does not happen then there is a CPU problem. If it does hums for 5-10 seconds then goes off but no heating then the pump may have an air bubble in line. Try the turn off and on method several times (up to 5) to get the water flowing. If it's still not working then there is a clog in the pump and will need service and/or replacement.
* Did you change water source? Since this is a table top machine in which you fill the water tank. Try to use filtered (bottled ok) water. Do Not use Distilled or 100% pure water as this type of water will eat out the metals from your machine! Some places use a water softener as it tends to be better for the machine long term (years).
* Still got problems? Check with vendor or MFR for service or replacement. Most machines of this type do not have serviceable parts or adjustments.

This sounds like the float is getting stuck , while the toilet is trying to fill if you see the float ball that is attached to a arm that pivots , if you lift the float up it should turn the water flow off from trying to fill the tank , some problems that can stop this are the rubber seal that lifts up when you press the flush button to allow water to flush the bowl does not seal back in a position so that the tank can never fill , sometimes the float ball can get stuck which stops it from rising up with the water level and shutting off the water , but my best guess is that the rubber seal has started to perish or distort and needs to be replaced you can find this right at the bottom of the tank and it is directly connected to the flush button ,so if you inspect inside the water tank and press the flush button you will see that it opens up and lets water pour into the toilet bowl but if a tight seal can not be made water will never fill the tank
I had this problem where my Jura E6 was stuck in a descaling loop. I filled the water tank with warm water and turned it off and then on again. This reset it to main screen and I was able to complete the entire descaling process and machine is making coffee again!
small black rectangular float is stuck in the water tanks . take off tank and empty. then shake you will see it on the side wall (machine side) if it does not rise when water is filled the machine still thinks its empty
Fortunately, from what you have described, the unit is working as it should. But, the frequency that it's occurring is what I think you're concerned about.
If you are operating the Dehumidifier Mode along with the Cooling Mode, this will generate more water in the tank and require more frequent draining. Running the Dehumidifier and the AC (Cool) at the same time is not recommended. It reduces the cooling capacity of the AC Mode and generates heat in the room. And, as you already know, more water.
Hope this helps you and thanks for choosing FixYa.
