HINTS AND TIPS
The advanced design of today's frost free appliances mean you hear unfamiliar noises
during everyday operation. The diagram below describes some of the noises you may hear.
These are quite normal and mean your appliance is operating correctly.
The automatic defrost timer
sounds like an electric clock
and clicks in and out of the
defrost cycle.
The fan circulates cold air to
cool the refrigerator and the
freezer compartment and
sounds like air blowing or a
whirring sound.
The flow of refrigerant
through the freezer cooling
coil makes a gurgling noise.
Water dropping on the defrost
heater causes a hissing or
popping sound during the
defrost cycle.
The compressor will make a
hum or pulsating sound while
operating.
The thermostat control will
click when starting or
stopping the compressor.
Defrost water drips into the
drain pan during the defrost
cycle.
