
The new high efficiency
compressor may run
faster and longer than
your old refrigerator and
you may hear a high-pitched hum or pulsating sound
while it is operating.

You may hear a whooshing sound when the doors close.
This is due to pressure equalizing within the refrigerator.
Normal operating sounds.
Newer refrigerators sound different from older refrigerators. Modern refrigerators have more features and use
newer technology.

You may hear the fans spinning at
high speeds. This happens when the
refrigerator is first plugged in, when the
doors are opened frequently or when
a large amount of food is added to the
refrigerator or freezer compartments. The
fans are helping to maintain the correct
temperatures.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and CHIRPS
■
You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the
refrigerator is first plugged in. This happens as the
refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.
■
The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping sound
when attempting to restart (this could take up to 5
minutes).
■
Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during and
after defrost can cause a cracking or popping sound.
■
On models with an icemaker, after an icemaking cycle,
you may hear the ice cubes dropping into the ice bucket.
■
On models with a dispenser, during water dispense, you
may hear the water lines move at initial dispense and
after dispenser button is released.
WATER SOUNDS

The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils may
make a gurgling noise like boiling water.

Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling,
popping or buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.

A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost cycle as ice
melts from the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.
­ ­ ­
Closing the door may cause a gurgling sound due to pressure
equalization.
Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.
