

Energy efficient foam in your refrigerator is

not a sound insulator.



During automatic defrost cycle, a red glow 

in the back wall vents of your freezer 

compartment is normal.  

Your new, high-efficiency refrigerator may

introduce unfamiliar sounds. These sounds 

normally indicate your refrigerator is 

operating correctly. Some surfaces on floors,

walls, and kitchen cabinets may make these 

sounds more noticeable. 
The following is a list of major components in 

your refrigerator and the sounds they can cause:

A.  Evaporator Refrigerant through the 

evaporator may create a boiling or 

gurgling sound.

B.  Evaporator fan You may hear air 

being forced through the refrigerator 

by the evaporator fan.

C.  Defrost heater During defrost 

cycles, water dripping onto the 

defrost heater may cause a hissing 

or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a 

popping sound may occur.

D.  Automatic ice maker When ice 

has been produced, you will hear ice 

cubes falling into the ice bin.  Ice 

maker fan, water valve activation, 

and refrigerant gas fluid may create

sounds from its operation.

defrost control These parts can 

produce a snapping or clicking sound 

when turning the cooling system on 

and off.

F.  Condenser fan You may hear air 

being forced through the condenser.

G.  Compressor Modern, high-efficiency

compressors run much faster than older 

models. The compressor may have a 

high-pitched hum or pulsating sound.

H.  Water valve Makes a buzzing sound 

each time it opens to fill the ice maker.

I.  Drain pan (not removable) You may 

hear water dripping into the drain pan 

during the defrost cycle.

J.  Condenser  May create minimal 

sounds from forced air.

L.  Ice dispensing paddle  When 

dispensing ice, you will hear a 

snapping, clicking, or popping sound 

when the solenoid opens and closes 

the ice chute.

M.  Motorized damper  May produce a 

light humming during operation.
