■

The new high-efficiency compressor may run faster 
and longer than your old refrigerator, and you may hear a
high-pitched hum or pulsating sound while it is operating.

■

You may hear a whooshing sound when the doors close. 
This is due to pressure equalizing within the refrigerator.

■

You may hear the fans spinning at high speeds. 
This happens when the refrigerator is first plugged in, when
the doors are opened frequently or when a large amount of
food is added to the refrigerator or freezer compartments.
The fans are helping to maintain 
the correct temperatures.

■

The fans change speeds in order to provide optimal cooling
and energy savings.

■

You may hear cracking or popping sounds when 
the refrigerator is first plugged in. This happens 
as the refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.

■

The freezer control will click when starting or stopping 
the compressor.

■

Defrost timer snapping in and out of the defrost cycle.

■

Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during 
and after defrost can cause a cracking or popping sound.

■

The flow of refrigerant through the freezer cooling coils may
make a gurgling noise like boiling water.

■

Water dropping on the defrost heater can cause a sizzling,
popping or buzzing sound during the defrost cycle.

■

A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost 
cycle as ice melts from the evaporator and flows 
into the drain pan.

■

Closing the door may cause a gurgling sound due 
to pressure equalization.
