OPERATING PROBLEMS

There are some noises that it is quite normal for a refrigerator to make:
• The refrigerant gas can produce a gurgling sound as it travels through the circuits.
• The compressor may produce a buzzing noise, which can be more noticeable during start-up.
• The "cracking" noise produced by expansion and contraction of the materials used.
The appliance does not work.
The refrigerator vibrates or is noisy.
The refrigerator gets too cold or not cold enough.
The refrigerator's bulb does not light.
The compressor does not start after a change in the temperature.
There is water on the floor or on the shelves.
