Normal operating sounds.

Depending on the placement of the refrigerator in your kitchen, you may want to place a piece of rubber-backed carpet under the refrigerator to reduce noise.

Safety Instructions

These sounds are normal and are due mostly to highly efficient operation.

The new high efficiency compressor runs faster and will have a higher pitch hum or pulsating sound while operating.

Defrost timer and refrigerator control click on and off.

The fan circulating air inside the freezer which keeps the temperatures throughout.

Water dropping on the defrost heater causing a sizzling, hissing or popping sound during the defrost cycle.

The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils sounds like boiling water or a gurgling noise.

Cracking or popping of cooling coils caused by expansion and contraction during defrost and refrigeration following defrost.

Water dripping as it melts from the evaporator and flows to the drain pan during the defrost cycle.

Icemaker

The icemaker water valve will buzz when the icemaker fills with water. If the feeler arm is in the ON (down) position it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. Keeping the feeler arm in the ON (down) position before it is hooked up to water can damage the icemaker. To prevent this, raise the feeler arm to the STOP (up) position. This will stop the buzzing.

The sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in pipes as icemaker refills.
