Appliance noise
Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn’t make. Because the sounds are new to you, you
might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, like the floor, walls and cabinets,
can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds and what may
be making them.
CONCERN WHAT TO DO
Motor noise (compressor) Nothing. This is normal as your new refrigerator uses a high-speed
compressor which switches on and off during operation.
Note that the compressor noise may seem louder at the start of the
on cycle.
A clicking noise heard just before the
compressor starts.
Nothing. This is normal as your new refrigerator has an automatic switching
action of the temperature control, turning the compressor on and off.
Occcasional gurgling, similar to water
boiling.
Nothing. As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the
refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator system.
Airflow noise. Nothing, this is normal as your new refrigerator uses high efficiency fans
to circulate air. Fan speed and noise may increase during periods of heavy
usage or hot weather.
Rattling and other noises. Ensure that the cabinet is level and stable, refer to Installation Instructions
on page 11.
Check the surrounds of the appliance to ensure there is nothing touching
or placed on top of the appliance.
Ensure that contents of the appliance are not placed in such a way that
they are vibrating (such as bottles).
