Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal
HUMMM...
--WHOOSH...
[] 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.
CLICKS, POPS,
CRACKSand CHIRPS
[] 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 compressor may cause a clicking or chirping
sound when attempting to restart (this could take
up to 5 minutes).
[] Expansion and contraction of cooling coils during and
after defrost can cause a cracking or popping sound.
[] On models with an icemaker, after an icemaking cycle,
you may hear the ice cubes dropping into
the ice bucket.
[]
On models with a dispenser, during water dispense,
you may hear the water lines move at initial dispense
and after dispenser button is released.
[]
WHIR,/
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 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.
