How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:
- Level the unit: Use a spirit level and adjust the front and rear feet until the cabinet is stable and level.
- Check rear components: Remove the rear panel and ensure the condenser fan, compressor, and copper tubing are not touching the cabinet walls. Add foam pads or clips where needed.
- Tighten panels: Tighten any loose screws on interior and exterior panels.
- Rearrange shelves: Ensure shelves are fully seated and bottles are not touching the cabinet walls or each other excessively.
- Compressor mounts: Inspect the rubber compressor mounts. Replace if hardened or broken.
