Normal Operating Sounds & Sights
UNDERSTANDING THE SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR
Your new high-efficiency refrigerator may introduce unfamiliar sounds. These
sounds normally indicate your refrigerator is operating correctly. Some surfaces on
floors, walls, and kitchen cabinets may make these sounds more noticeable.
Following is a list of major components in your refrigerator and
the sounds they can cause:
A
Evaporator
Refrigerant through the evaporator may
create a boiling or gurgling sound.
B
Evaporator Fan
You may hear air being forced through
the refrigerator by the evaporator fan.
C
Defrost Heater
During defrost cycles, water dripping
onto the defrost heater may cause a hissing or sizzling
sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may occur.
D
Automatic Ice Maker
When ice has been produced, you
will hear ice cubes falling into the ice bin.
E
Cold Control & Automatic Defrost Control
These parts
can produce a snapping or clicking sound when turning the cooling system
on and off.
F
Condenser Fan
You may hear air being forced through the condenser.
G
Compressor
Modern, high-efficiency compressors run much faster than in
the past. The compressor may have a high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.
H
Water Valve
Makes a buzzing sound each time it opens to fill the ice maker.
I
Drain Pan
(not removable) You may hear water dripping into the drain pan
during the defrost cycle.
