When it is set to "Sensor Cool"/" Quick ", operation sound of the compressor
or the fan motor gets louder because of high-speed revolution.
As the compressor operates slowly for energy savings, you may hear an
operating noise for a long time.
The operating power varies in response to changes in the inside
temperature of the refrigerator, and thus you may sometimes hear a
large noise.
These sounds are caused when the refrigerant flows or water flows/
