How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before adjusting its position or touching internal parts.

  • Level the appliance: Place the ProfiCook ice maker on a stable, flat surface. Use a spirit level if available and adjust with shims if necessary.
  • Check for external contact: Ensure the unit is not touching walls, cabinets, or other appliances that can amplify vibration.
  • Inspect fan area: Look through the rear or side vents to see if the fan blades are contacting wiring or plastic. If safe, gently reposition any wires away from the fan.
  • Tighten accessible screws: With the unit unplugged, gently tighten any loose screws on the outer housing.
  • If noise persists: Internal components such as compressor mounts or fan motor may need adjustment or replacement by a technician.
