How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before tipping or moving it.

Steps to correct vibration:

  • Level the unit: Adjust any leveling feet so the cabinet is stable and does not rock.
  • Check surface: Place the unit on a solid, non-flexing surface. Avoid hollow countertops that amplify vibration.
  • Inspect mounts: Remove panels and verify that compressor and fan mounts are tight and that rubber grommets are intact.
  • Replace worn mounts: If grommets are cracked or missing, replace them to isolate vibration.
