Possible Causes
Unit not level, Adjustable feet not set, Freezer touching adjacent cabinets or walls, Loose internal components amplifying vibration
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal electrical work required; ensure the unit is unplugged if you need to move it.
Steps:
- 1. Level the freezer: Use a spirit level and adjust the front feet until the cabinet is stable and does not rock.
- 2. Clearance: Ensure the sides and rear do not touch walls or other appliances. Maintain recommended clearances.
- 3. Stabilise floor contact: For uneven floors, use shims under the feet to prevent rocking.
- 4. Check internal items: Ensure drawers and baskets are seated properly and not rattling.
