Possible Causes

Unit not leveled, Loose leveling feet, Freezer in contact with wall or cabinets, Internal components touching cabinet panels

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not place hands under the freezer while it is running without proper support.

  • 1. Level the freezer: Use a spirit level and adjust the front feet until the unit is stable and slightly tilted back so the door closes by itself.
  • 2. Provide clearance: Ensure there is at least the manufacturer-recommended clearance around the sides and back so the cabinet does not touch walls or cabinets.
  • 3. Check for loose panels: Tighten any loose screws on the rear cover or interior panels that may vibrate.
  • 4. Isolate contact points: If the freezer still vibrates against nearby surfaces, add thin foam pads or spacers between the cabinet and adjacent structures.
