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 chart describes the kinds of sounds that might be new

to you, and what may be making them.

Possible Sounds:
• Slight Hum, Soft Hiss:

Probable Causes:

Your refrigerator has two fans: you may hear the fan motors and moving air.

• Clicking or Snapping

Sounds:

The defrost timer makes a definite cliok when the refrigerator stops running. It
also makes a sound when the refrigerator 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:

If your refrigerator has an ice maker, 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.

Energy Saving Tips

You can help your refrigerator use less electricity,

• Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level the cab­

inet to be sure of a good seal

• Clean the condenser coil 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 foods orga­
nized 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 refrigerator 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

Keep the Power Saving Control on OFF unless
moisture forms on the refrigerator exterior.
Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a heat

source such as a range, water heater, furnace,
radiator, or in direct sunlight
