■

Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize 
performance

■

Rattling - flow of refrigerant, water line, or from items placed 
on top of the refrigerator

■

Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the heater during 
defrost cycle

■

Popping - contraction/expansion of inside walls, especially 
during initial cool-down

■

Water running - may be heard when ice melts during the 
defrost cycle and water runs into the drain pan

■

Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being ejected from the 
ice maker mold.

■

Door blocked open? Move food packages away from door. 

■

Bin or shelf in the way? Push bin or shelf back in the correct 
position.

■

Are the gaskets dirty or sticky? Clean gaskets with mild 
soap and warm water.

■

What do I do if the refrigerator rocks and is not stable? 
To stabilize the refrigerator, remove the base grille and lower 
the leveling feet until they touch the floor. See the “Door 
Removal” instructions, either in the User Instructions or the 
separate instruction sheet provided with your refrigerator.

■

Is a light bulb loose in the socket or burned out? See  
“Changing the Light Bulbs.”

■

Is the dispenser light set to OFF? On some models, the 
dispenser light will operate only when a dispenser lever/pad 
is pressed. If you want the dispenser light to stay on 
continuously, set the dispenser light to ON, or (on some 
models) NIGHT LIGHT or AUTO or HALF or DIM. See “Water 
and Ice Dispensers.”

■

Is the dispenser light set to NIGHT LIGHT or AUTO? On 
some models, if the dispenser is set to the NIGHT LIGHT or 
AUTO mode, be sure the dispenser light sensor is not 
blocked. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”

■

New installation? Allow 24 hours following installation for 
the refrigerator to cool completely.

■

Door(s) opened often or left open? Allows warm air to enter 
refrigerator. Minimize door openings and keep doors fully 
closed. 

■

Large load of food added? Allow several hours for 
refrigerator to return to normal temperature. 

■

Controls set correctly for the surrounding conditions? 
Adjust the controls a setting colder. Check temperature in 
24 hours. See “Using the Controls.”

NOTE: Some moisture buildup is normal.

■

Humid room? Contributes to moisture buildup.

■

Door(s) opened often or left open? Allows humid air to 
enter refrigerator. Minimize door openings and keep doors 
fully closed.

■

Refrigerator connected to a water supply and the supply 
shutoff valve turned on? Connect refrigerator to water 
supply and turn water shutoff valve fully open. 

■

Kink in the water source line? A kink in the line can reduce 
water flow. Straighten the water source line. 

■

Ice maker turned on? Make sure wire shutoff arm or switch 
(depending on model) is in the ON position. 

■

New installation? Wait 24 hours after ice maker installation 
for ice production to begin. Wait 72 hours for full ice 
production. 

■

Large amount of ice recently removed? Allow 24 hours for 
ice maker to produce more ice. 

■

Ice cube jammed in the ice maker ejector arm?
Remove ice from the ejector arm with a plastic utensil. (This 
does not apply to models with the ice maker mounted at the 
top of the freezer door.)

■

Reverse osmosis water filtration system connected to 
your cold water supply? This can decrease water pressure. 
See “Water Supply Requirements.” 

NOTE: This is an indication of low water pressure.

■

Water shutoff valve not fully open? Turn the water shutoff 
valve fully open.

■

Kink in the water source line? A kink in the line can reduce 
water flow. Straighten the water source line. 

■

Reverse osmosis water filtration system connected to 
your cold water supply? This can decrease water pressure.
