Sorry for the wait on the reply guys. :-[
As it was out of operating hrs for Sunbeam, I sent away an email informing them of the problem. Would you believe that I got a phone call promptly at 9.30am the next morning (Perth time), from a lovely lady (Heather) who walked me through a quick check (i.e. check the water reservoir was all the way in, the orientation of the "bow tie" valve, etc) - just to find the same problem. Low water level light kept on blinking. She got the number for the Hardly Normal store I bought the machine from, called them and organised for a replacement.
Boom. Done.
Walked in, changed over, set up straight away at home - light blinking again.

Fortunately I think it must have been a start-up thing because it stopped the same time the initial warm-up blinking of the power light became red - or maybe the float just dropped back? lol - either way, been perfect in the days since.

Lol - funny that Heather didnt mention to check that float either Ausdb. I never even considered that...oh well. Cant fault Heathers way of dealing with it - no nonsense, no mucking around. Confirm the problem - fix it.
If Im unfortunate enough to have to call Sunbeam to deal with another issue - I will definitely be asking for her again.
