How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal electrical work is required for basic vibration fixes.

Steps:

  • Level the appliance: Adjust the front feet so the freezer is stable and does not rock. Use a spirit level if available.
  • Secure panels: Tighten any loose screws on the rear panel, compressor cover, and interior panels.
  • Check shelves and drawers: Ensure all shelves and baskets are properly seated and not rattling.
  • Isolate from surroundings: Make sure the freezer is not touching walls or cabinets that can transmit vibration. Leave a small gap.
