Normal Operating Sounds

All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to provide 
high thermal efficiency and maximum sound reduction for its 
internal working components. Despite this technology, your model 
may make sounds that are unfamiliar. 

Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable because of the 
unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as cabinets, wood, vinyl or 
tiled floors and paneled walls have a tendency to reflect normal 
appliance operating noises.

Listed below are common refrigeration components with brief 
description of the normal operating sounds they make. NOTE: 
Your product may not contain all the components listed.

• Compressor: The compressor makes a hum or pulsing sound 

that may be heard when it operates. 

• Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator may 

sound like boiling liquid. 

• Condenser Fan: Air moving through a condenser may be heard.
• Automatic Defrost Drain Pan: Water may be heard dripping or 

running into the drain pan when the unit is in the defrost cycle.

Troubleshooting Guide

DANGER

ELECTROCUTION HAZARD. Never attempt to repair or

and remedies. Most often, this will resolve the problem without 
the need to call for service. 

If Service is Required
