Troubleshooting Guide - LG LFC25765ST Owner's Manual

UNDERSTANDING SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR
Your new refrigerator might produce certain noises that
your previous refrigerator did not. It is normal if you worry.
Most of the new sounds you will be hearing are actually
normal and expected. Hard surfaces like walls or floor
can increase sounds and make them sound louder than
they really are. The following list has a description of such
sounds along with their causes.
• The thawing timer will make a "click" sound when such
timer will start and finish. Temperature controlling
device will also make a "click" sound at the beginning
and ending of the refrigerator cycle.
