will hear ice cubes dropping into the ice bin.

 

If this is your first icemaker, you’ll hear

 

occasional sounds that may be unfamiliar.

 

They are normal icemaking sounds and are

 

not a cause for concern.

 

Evaporator Fan. You may hear air being

forced through the cabinet by the fan.

 

Evaporator. The flow of refrigerant through

3

 

the evaporator may create a boiling or

 

gurgling sound.

 

Defrost Heater. During defrost cycles,

water dripping onto the heater may

 

cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After

 

defrosting, a popping sound may occur

 

and the evaporator may create a boiling

 

or gurgling sound.

 

Cold Control & Defrost Timer. These parts

can produce a snapping sound when

 

turning the refrigerator on or off. The

 

timer also produces a sound similar to

 

an electric clock.

 

Plastic Liner. Cracking or popping sounds

due to expansion of the plastic liner.

 

Water Valve (on models equipped with an

automatic icemaker). When the icemaker fills

 

 

with water, a buzzing sound and running

 

water will be heard.

 

Water Pan. Water may be heard running into

the drain pan during the defrost cycle.

 

Compressor. Modern, high efficiency

compressors operate much faster than older

models. The compressor may have a high pitched hum or pulsating sound.

10 Condenser Fan. You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the fan.
