Normal operating sounds.

Newer refrigerators sound different from older refrigerators.

Modern refrigerators have more features and use newer technology.

Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal.

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. maintaining ice at a freezing temperature. The hum of the motor closing the ice chute is normal. shortly after dispensing ice.

WHIR!

  • 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 ii hear owiehe 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 ropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling. popping or buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.
  • Awater 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.
