NOISE

Problem

Possible Causes

Solutions

Clicking

The defrost control will click when

the automatic defrost cycle begins

and ends. The thermostat control (or

refrigerator control on some models)

will also click when cycling on and

off.

Normal Operation

Rattling

Rattling noises may come from the

flow of refrigerant, the water line on

the back of the unit, or items stored

on top of or around the refrigerator.

Normal Operation

Refrigerator is not resting solidly on

the floor.

Floor is weak or uneven or leveling legs need to be

adjusted. See the Door Alignment section.

Refrigerator with linear compressor

was jarred while running.

Normal Operation

Whooshing

Evaporator fan motor is circulating

air through the refrigerator and

freezer compartments.

Normal Operation

Air is being forced over the condenser

by the condenser fan.

Normal Operation

Gurgling

Refrigerant flowing through the

cooling system.

Normal Operation

Popping

Contraction and expansion of the

inside walls due to changes in

temperature.

Normal Operation

Sizzling

Water dripping on the defrost heater

during a defrost cycle.

Normal Operation

Vibrating

If the side or back of the refrigerator

is touching a cabinet or wall, some of

the normal vibrations may make an

audible sound.

To eliminate the noise, make sure that the sides and

back cannot vibrate against any wall or cabinet.

Dripping

Water running into the drain pan

during the defrost cycle.

Normal Operation

Pulsating or High-
Pitched Sound

Your refrigerator is designed to run

more efficiently to keep your food

items at the desired temperature. The

high efficiency compressor may cause

your new refrigerator to run longer

than your old one, but it is still more

energy efficient than previous models.

While the refrigerator is running, it is

normal to hear a pulsating or

highpitched

sound.

Normal Operation
