Your new refrigerator
may run longer than your old one due to
its high-efficiency
compressor and fans. The unit may run even
longer if the room is warm, a large food load is added, the door
is opened often, or if the door has been left open.
The refrigerator
seems noisy
Refrigerator
noise has been reduced over the years. Due to this
reduction, you may hear intermittent
noises from your new
refrigerator
that you did not notice from your old model. Below
are listed some normal sounds with explanations.
•
Buzzing - heard when the water valve opens to fill the ice
maker
•
Pulsating - fans/compressor
adjusting to optimize
performance.
•
Hissing/Rattling
- flow of refrigerant,
movement of water
lines, 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/dripping
- may be heard when ice melts
during defrosting and water runs into the drain pan.
•
Creaking/Cracking
- occurs as ice is being ejected from the
ice maker mold.
The doors will not close completely or they pop open
•
Door blocked open? Move food packages away from door.
•
Bin or shelf in the way? Push bin or shelf back in the correct
position.
•
Crisper cover in the way? Make sure the crisper cover is fully
pushed in, so that the back rests on the supports.
•
Refrigerator

close easier, raise the front of the refrigerator
so that it tilts
slightly downward
toward the rear. See "Adjust the Doors."
•
