Normal Sounds; Radio Frequency Interference - FirstBuild Opal Nugget Ice Use And Care Manual

Normal sounds

Your new ice maker may make sounds that are not familiar. Most of these sounds
are normal. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls, and countertops can amplify these
sounds. The following describes the sounds that may be new to you and what may
be creating them.
WHIR - When Opal is first turned on, you may notice the condenser fan spinning.
BUZZ - When the water pump first turns on, it may be dry and slightly noisy. Once
it is filled with water, the noise reduces significantly.
RATTLE - Rattling noises may be produced from the flow of the refrigerant. These
noises should reduce significantly once the refrigerant system has stabilized.
GURGLE - When the refrigerant system shuts o , there may be a brief gurgle as
the refrigerant stops flowing.
HUM - The compressor is a motor. It produces a low toned humming sound while it
is running.
CLICK - As nugget ice is produced, it drops into the ice drawer. The first nuggets
produced are the loudest, as they impact the bottom of the ice bin. As the bin fills,
this noise reduces significantly.
SQUEAK – When Opal is in need of defrosting, it may start to squeak as ice starts
to build up around the mechanisms. The defost cycle is automatic, and may take
30-45 minutes. During this time, the front button won't respond.
