Changing the light bulb
^WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Before removing a light bulb or removing
a light shield for cleaning, either unplug
the refrigerator or disconnect the electric­
ity leading to it at the main power supply.
Failure to do so could result in electrical
shock.
To change refrigerator light:
1. Disconnect refrigerator from power supply.
2. Reach behind Control Panel to remove bulb.
3. Replace with a 40-watt appliance bulb.
4. Reconnect refrigerator to power supply.
NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your
refrigerator. Be sure to replace a bulb with one
of the same size and shape.
Understanding the sounds you may hear
Water sounds Your new refrigerator may make sounds that
your old one didn’t. Because the sounds are
new to you, you might be concerned about
them. Don’t be. Most of the new sounds are
normal. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls
and cabinets can make the sounds seem
louder.
The following describes the kinds of
sounds that might be new to you, and what
may be making them.
Slight hum, soft hiss
You may hear the refrigerator’s fan motor
and moving air.
Clicking or snapping sounds
The thermostat makes a definite click when
the refrigerator stops running. It also makes
a sound when the refrigerator starts. The
defrost timer will click when the defrost
cycle starts.
When the refrigerator stops running, you
may hear gurgling in the tubing for a few
minutes after it stops. You may also hear
defrost water running into the defrost water
pan.
Ice maker sounds
• trickling water
• thud (clatter of ice)
If your refrigerator has an ice maker, you
may hear buzzing (from the water valve),
trickling water and the clatter of ice dumped
into the bin.
Running sounds
Your refrigerator has a high-efficiency
compressor and motor. It will run longer than
older designs. It may even seem to run most
of the time.
