Understanding

the sounds

you may hear

Your new refrigerator may make sounds

that your old one didn't. Because the

sounds are new to you, you might be

concerned about them. Don't be. Most of

the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces

like the floor, walls, and cabinets can make

the sounds seem louder.

The following describes the kinds of

sounds that might be new to you, and

what may be making them.

Slight

hum, soft hiss

You may hear the refrigerator's fan motor

and moving air.

Clicking

or snapping

sounds

The thermostat makes a definite click when

the refrigerator stops running. It also makes

a sound when the refrigerator starts. The

defrost timer will click when the defrost

cycle starts.

Water

sounds

When the refrigerator stops running,

you may hear gurgling in the tubing for

a few minutes after it stops. You may

also hear defrost water running into the

defrost water pan.

Ice maker

sounds

trickling water

thud (clatter of ice)

You may hear buzzing (from the water

valve), trickling water, and the clatter of

ice dumped into the bin.

Running

sounds

Your refrigerator has a high-efficiency

compressor and motor. It will run longer

than older designs. It may even seem to

run most of the time.

Saving

energy

You can help your refrigerator use less

electricity.

Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level

the cabinet to be sure of a good seal.

Clean the condenser coils regularly.

Open the door as few times as possible.

Think about what you need before you

open the door. Get everything out at one

time. Keep food organized so you won't

have to search for what you want. Close

door as soon as food is removed.

Go ahead and fill up the refrigerator, but

don't overcrowd it so air movement is

blocked.

It is a waste of electricity to set the refrig-

erator and freezer to temperatures colder

than they need to be. If ice cream is firm in

the freezer and drinks are as cold as your

family likes them, that's cold enough.

Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a

heat source such as a range, water heater,

furnace, radiator, or in direct sunlight.
