Possible Causes
Appliance not level, Loose internal components or panels, Compressor vibration transmitted to cabinet, Uneven floor surface
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the freezer before adjusting feet or panels.
- 1. Level the unit: Use a spirit level and adjust the front feet until the freezer is stable and does not rock. Ensure all feet contact the floor firmly.
- 2. Add anti-vibration pads: Place rubber pads under the feet to absorb vibration, especially on hard floors.
- 3. Tighten panels: Check and tighten screws on side and rear panels, as loose panels can amplify vibration.
- 4. Check compressor mounts: Inspect and replace worn compressor grommets to reduce transmitted vibration.
- 5. Clear surroundings: Ensure the freezer is not touching walls or cabinets that can resonate.
