This new refrigerator may be replacing a differently
designed, less efficient or smaller refrigerator. Today’s
refrigerators have new features and are more energy
efficient. As a result, certain sounds may be unfamiliar.
These sounds are normal and will soon become familiar.
These sounds also indicate refrigerator is operating and
performing as designed.
