■ Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant, the
water line, or items stored on top of the refrigerator.
■ Your refrigerator is designed to run more efficiently to keep
your food items at the desired temperature. The high
efficiency compressor may cause your new refrigerator to run
longer than your old one, and you may hear a pulsating or
high-pitched sound.
■ Water dripping on the defrost heater during a defrost cycle
may cause a sizzling sound.
■ You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating the air
through the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
■ As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant flowing in your refrigerator.
■ Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a
popping noise.
■ You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
■ You may hear water running into the drain pan during the
defrost cycle.
USING YOUR
REFRIGERATOR
Ensuring Proper Air Circulation
In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to
flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of the
freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator
section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as
shown.
Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal,
bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented and
the temperature controls will not function properly.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent
odor transfer from food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
Setting the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at
the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure
that the controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the
Freezer Control should both be at the “mid-settings” as shown in
the illustrations below.
Setting the dial controls (on some models):
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator
compartment temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-
setting make the temperature less cold. Settings to the right of
the mid-setting make the temperature colder.

NOTE: Your product will not cool when the Refrigerator Control is
set to “0” (OFF).
The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment
temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the
temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting
make the temperature colder.
