Normal Operating Sounds
All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to provide high thermal efficiency and maximum sound reduction for its internal working components. In spite of this technology, your model may make sounds that are unfamiliar.
Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable because of the unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as cabinets, wood/vinyl/tiled floors and paneled walls have a tendency to reflect normal appliance operating noises.
Common refrigeration components, and a brief description of the normal operating sounds they make, are listed below. NOTE: Your product may not contain all of the components listed.
•Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing sound that may be heard when it operates.
•Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator may sound like boiling liquid.
