Possible Causes
Hard plastic bin with no cushioning, ice dropping from excessive height, bin not seated properly, oversized ice cubes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before adjusting the bin or internal parts.
- Check bin seating: Ensure the ice basket is fully inserted and resting correctly on its supports.
- Add cushioning: If compatible with your Tower model, place a thin food-safe silicone mat or liner at the bottom of the bin to soften the impact.
- Adjust ice size: Select a smaller ice size to reduce cube mass and impact noise.
- Inspect drop path: Confirm that ice is not striking hard plastic edges or obstructions before reaching the bin; adjust guides if necessary.
