Possible Causes
Unit not leveled, Loose or worn compressor mounts, Shelves not seated properly, Fan imbalance
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before working near the compressor or fans.
- 1. Level and stabilize: Adjust leveling legs so all four corners are firmly on the floor. Use shims if the floor is uneven.
- 2. Reposition bottles: Distribute weight evenly across shelves and avoid bottles touching the cabinet walls.
- 3. Check shelf fit: Ensure all shelves are fully inserted and locked into their tracks. Loose shelves can rattle.
- 4. Inspect compressor mounts: Access the rear compartment and check the rubber grommets or mounts under the compressor. Replace if cracked or missing.
- 5. Examine fans: Look for bent fan blades or debris causing imbalance. Replace damaged fan assemblies.
Note: Minimizing vibration is important for long-term wine quality.
