How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before tightening or cleaning mechanical parts.

Step-by-step:

  • Level the appliance: Use a spirit level and adjust the feet or position so the G3 Ferrari ice maker sits flat and stable.
  • Check for contact points: Ensure the cabinet is not touching walls or other appliances that can amplify vibration.
  • Inspect fan: Access the rear panel and check the condenser fan for obstructions. Clean dust and ensure the blades spin freely.
  • Secure compressor: Verify that the compressor mounting bolts and rubber grommets are intact and tight.

When to call a technician: Persistent grinding or buzzing may indicate a failing fan motor or water pump that should be replaced.
