PROBLEM
REFRIGERATOR DOES NOT OPERATE

savings.
These NORMAL sounds will also be heard from time to time:
– You may hear a whooshing or gurgling sound when the doors close. This
– A water dripping noise may occur during the defrost cycle as ice melts
from the evaporator and flows into the drain pan.

– You may hear cracking or popping sounds when the refrigerator is
first plugged in or during/after the defrost cycle. This happens as the
refrigerator cools to the correct temperature.
– Electronic dampers click open and closed to provide optimal cooling and
energy savings.
– The compressor may cause a clicking or chirping sound when attempting
to restart (this could take up to 5 minutes).
– The electronic control board may cause a clicking sound when relays
