Depending on the placement of the refrigerator in your kitchen, 
you may want to place a piece of rubber-backed carpet under 
the refrigerator to reduce noise.

Occasionally you will hear ice cubes dropping 

into the ice bin. If this is your first icemaker, you’ll hear occasional sounds 

that may be unfamiliar. They are normal icemaking sounds and are not a

cause for concern.

You may hear air being forced through the cabinet by the fan.

The flow of refrigerant through the evaporator may create a

boiling or gurgling sound.

During defrost cycles, water dripping onto the heater may

cause a hissing or sizzling sound. After defrosting, a popping sound may occur

and the evaporator may create a boiling or gurgling sound.

These parts can produce a snapping sound when

turning the refrigerator on or off. The timer also produces a sound similar to

an electric clock.

Cracking or popping sounds due to expansion of the 

plastic liner.

When the

icemaker fills with water, a buzzing sound and running water will be heard.

Water may be heard running into the drain pan during the 

defrost cycle.

Modern, high efficiency compressors operate much faster 

than older models. The compressor may have a high pitched hum or

pulsating sound.

You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the fan.
