Possible Causes

Unit not level, Missing or damaged leveling feet, Cabinet not properly secured in built-in installation

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before adjusting leveling feet.

  • Level the unit: Place a bubble level on top of the ice maker. Adjust the front and rear leveling feet until the unit is level side-to-side and front-to-back.
  • Check feet condition: Replace any missing or damaged rubber feet to reduce vibration transfer.
  • Secure built-in units: For built-in EdgeStar models, ensure mounting brackets or screws are installed per the installation manual to prevent cabinet movement.
  • Add vibration pads: Place anti-vibration pads under the feet if the floor is uneven or resonant.
