Troubleshooting (con’t)
PROBLEM
• The refrigerator
makes unusual
noises or vibrations.
• The outside of the
refrigerator is hot.
•
• Water condenses
on the outside of
the refrigerator.
POSSIBLE CAUSE & SOLUTION
The following sounds are normal:
• Compressor running noises.
• Air movement noise from the small fan motor in the freezer
compartment or other compartments.
• Gurgling sound similar to water boiling.
•
• Popping noise during automatic defrosting.
• Clicking noise before the compressor starts.
• Clicking noise when you get the water.
• Motor running noises when you get the ice.
Other unusual noises or vibrations may occur:
• If you have items on the top of your refrigerator. Remove
the items.
• If your refrigerator is not level. See Leveling your refrigerator
• If your refrigerator is not level. See Leveling your refrigerator
on page 12.
• If your refrigerator is touching walls. Move it away from the walls.
• If the shelves or drawers are installed incorrectly.
Heat dissipation from the condenser may make the outside
feel hot. This is normal and happens if:
• The room temperature is high.
•
• You have too much food in your refrigerator.
• You open and close the doors excessively.
• Condensation on the exterior surface and door seal is normal
when the room humidity is high.
• When you open the door, warm, moist outside air meets the
cold dry air inside your refrigerator. This is normal.
