Possible Causes
Compressor mounting grommets worn or missing, Refrigerant lines touching cabinet and vibrating, Loose condenser fan shroud, Unit not leveled causing cabinet vibration
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before adjusting components near the compressor or fan.
- Level the cooler: Use a spirit level to ensure the Kismile wine cooler is level front-to-back and side-to-side. Adjust leveling feet as needed.
- Check compressor mounts: Access the rear and inspect rubber grommets under the compressor. Replace missing or hardened compressor mounting grommets.
- Secure tubing: Gently bend refrigerant lines away from cabinet walls or each other if they are touching and causing rattling. Do not kink the lines.
- Tighten fan shroud: Ensure the condenser fan housing and any brackets are firmly screwed in place.
- Isolate vibration: Place anti-vibration pads under the feet if the floor is uneven or resonant.
