Normal operating sounds.
Newer refrigerators sound different than older refrigerators.
Modern refrigerators have more features and use newer technology.
HUMMM...
WHOOSH...
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.
After dispensing ice, a motor will close the ice chute to keep warn room air from
entering the ice bucket, mainting ice at a freezing temperature.
The humm of the motor closing the ice chute is normal, shortly after dispensing ice.
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.
The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling and energy savings.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKS and SNAPS
You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the refrigerator is first plugged
in. This happens as the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.
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 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.
