Unit is very noisy during operation; rattling, buzzing, or grinding sounds.

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before tightening or removing parts.

Steps to reduce noise:

• Level the unit: Ensure the Silonn ice maker sits flat on a stable surface. Use rubber pads under the feet if needed.
• Tighten screws: Remove the outer panels and gently tighten any loose mounting screws on the compressor bracket, fan shroud, and internal frame.
• Inspect fan: Check the condenser fan blades for contact with wiring or plastic shrouds. Remove any debris and gently bend obstructions away.
• Check water pump: If noise seems to come from the reservoir, inspect the recirculation water pump for trapped debris or scale. Clean or replace if noisy.
• Isolate vibration: Ensure refrigerant tubing is not touching the cabinet walls; gently bend it away to prevent rattling.

When to call a professional: Grinding or metallic scraping from the compressor itself usually indicates internal failure and requires professional evaluation.
