Possible Causes

Unit not level, Uneven floor, Loose compressor mounting, Feet not adjusted correctly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not tilt the cooler excessively while it is running. Unplug if you need to move it significantly.

Steps to reduce vibration:

  • Level the unit: Use a spirit level on the top surface. Adjust the front leveling feet until the cabinet is stable and does not rock.
  • Check floor: If the floor is uneven, consider placing a solid board under the cooler to provide a flat surface.
  • Inspect compressor mounts: From the rear, check that the compressor is firmly mounted on its rubber grommets and that none are missing or broken. Replace grommets if needed.
  • Clear contact points: Ensure the cabinet is not touching adjacent furniture or walls, which can transmit vibration.
