Modern refrigerators have more features and use newer technology. Do you hear what I hear? These sounds are normal. Consumer SupportTroubleshooting Instructions Installation 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, CRACKS and 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. ¦ 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. WATER SOUNDS ¦ 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. For additional information on normal icemaker operating sounds, see the About the automatic icemaker section. 21 Consumer Support Troubleshooting TipsOperating InstructionsSafety InstructionsInstallation InstructionsTroubleshooting Tips Installation Instructions Safety InstructionsOperating Instructions Before you call for service… Troubleshooting Tips Save time and money!
