TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
UNDERSTANDING SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR
Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old
one did not make. Because the sounds are new to
you, you might be concerned about them. Most of
the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, like the
floor, walls and cabinets, can make the sounds seem
louder than they actually are. The following list
describes the kinds of sounds and what may be
making them.
A clicking noise may come from the electronic
control switching the cooling system on and off.
Rattling noises may come from the flow of
refrigerant, the water line, or items stored on top of
the refrigerator.
Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently
to keep your food items at the desired temperature.
The high efficiency compressor may cause your
new refrigerator to run longer than your old one,
but is still more energy efficient than previous
models. While running, you may hear a pulsating or
high-pitched sound, this is normal.
You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating
the air through the refrigerator and freezer
compartments.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling
sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your
refrigerator.
Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may
cause a popping noise.
Water dripping on the defrost heater during a
defrost cycle may cause a sizzling sound.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser
by the condenser fan.
You may hear water running into the drain pan
during the defrost cycle.
You can hear the noise occurring from the ice
compartment fan in the freezer on the left side of
the refrigerator when doors are open.
