Rattling or clanking noise when the compressor starts or runs (compressor models).

Unplug the unit before bending any tubing or tightening mounts.

Steps:

• Remove external items: Take any bottles or objects off the top of the cooler that may be vibrating.
• Check compressor mounts: Inspect the rubber grommets under the compressor. Tighten mounting bolts if loose, but do not overtighten and crush the grommets.
• Separate tubing: Gently bend copper lines away from the cabinet or each other if they are touching and rattling. Use minimal force to avoid kinking.
• Secure condenser: Tighten any loose brackets holding the condenser coil.
