You hear unfa- miliar sounds or

arattling/ jingling noise

There is water in the defrost pan

The motor seems to run too much

Is a bulb burned out?

Is something on top of or behind the refrigerator?

Some new sounds are normal. See “Understanding the sounds you may hear” on page 11.

This is normal on hot, muggy days. Make sure the refrigerator is level so the pan does not overflow.

Are the condenser coils dirty?

Has the door been opened often? Has a large amount of food been added at one time? The motor naturally runs longer if these things happen.

Is the room hot? If the room is too warm, the motor runs longer to keep the unit cool.
