The door is not closed completely.
The temperature control is not set correctly.
The door gasket does not seal properly.

The Refrigerator has recently been disconnected for a
period of time. 6+ hours are required for the Refrigerator
to cool down completely pending on operating
conditions.
Temperature inside the
Refrigerator is too cold.

warmer setting and allow several hours for the
temperature to stabilize.
Temperature of external
Refrigerator side walls are
warm.
The exterior Refrigerator walls can be as much as 15-20
degrees warmer than room temperature.
This is normal while the compressor works to transfer
heat from inside the Refrigerator cabinet to the
condenser behind the Refrigerator side walls.

when compressor comes on.
Metal parts undergo expansion and contraction, as in
hot water pipes. This is normal. Sound will level off or
disappear as Refrigerator continues to run.

like water boiling.
Refrigerant (used to cool Refrigerator) is circulating
throughout the system. This is normal operation.
