Normal Sounds

Your new convertible refrigerator/freezer may make sounds that your old one didn’t make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, such as the floor, walls, and cabinets, can make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds of sounds and what may be making them.

Your convertible refrigerator/freezer is designed to run efficiently, to keep your food items at the desired temperatures and to minimize energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may cause your convertible refrigerator/freezer to run longer than your old one. You may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.
