temperature.
Ice cubes have an odor.

section.
• Discard ice and clean ice bucket or trays more
frequently. Ice cubes are porous and absorb odors
easily.
Ice cubes stick together or 'shrink'.
• Empty ice cube bucket or trays more frequently. If
used infrequently, ice cubes may stick together or
shrink.
Ice forms in inlet tube to ice maker (some models).
• Check water pressure. Low water pressure will cause
valve to leak. Self-piercing valves cause low water
pressure. Amana recommends using a saddle
valve. Contact 1-800-843-0304 or an Amana dealer
for availability. Do not use self-piercing valve.
Amana is not responsible for property damage
due to improper installation or water connection.

Normal Operating Sounds

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.
• Deepfreeze

control clicks when starting or stopping
compressor.
®
• Deepfreeze
fan air rushes and whirs.
• Sealed system (evaporator and heat exchanger)
refrigerant flow gurgles, pops or sounds like boiling
water.
• Defrost heater sizzles, hisses or pops.
• Condenser fan air rushes and whirs.
• Compressor has a high pitched hum or pulsating
sound.
• Ice cubes from ice maker (some models) drop into ice
bucket.
• Ice maker water valve hookup (some models)
buzzes when ice maker fills with water. This occurs
whether or not refrigerator is connected to water
supply. If refrigerator is not connected to water supply,
stop sound by raising ice maker arm to off position.
• Foam insulation is very energy efficient and has
excellent insulating capabilities. However, foam
insulation is not as sound absorbent as
previously used fiberglass insulation.
