Sounds you may hear...
Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn't.
Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about
them. Don't be. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces like
the floor, walls and cabinets can make the sounds seem louder.
The following chart describes the kinds of sounds that might be new
to you, and what may be making them.
Possible Sounds: Probable Causes:
l
Slight Hum, Soft Hiss: You may hear fan motors and moving air.
l
Clicking or Snapping
Sounds:
l
Water Sounds:
The defrost timer makes a definite click when the refrigerator stops running. It
also makes a sound when the refrigerator starts.
When the refrigerator stops running, you may hear gurgling in the tubing for a
few minutes after it stops. You may also hear defrost water running into the
defrost water pan.
l
Running Sounds: Your refrigerator has a high-efficiency compressor and motor. It will run longer
than older designs. It may even seem to run most of the time.
