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.
