ENERGY SAVING TIPS AND PRODUCT SOUNDS
The following suggestions will minimize the
cost of operating your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance,
(cooker, dishwasher, etc.). heating air duct, or other
heat sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Ensure the front grille vents at front of unit above door
are not obstructed and kept clean to allow ventilation
for the refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever
large quantities of warm contents are placed within
refrigerated storage compartment, minimize door
openings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull
down to compartment set-point temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will
require less appliance run time than an empty compart-
ment.
7. Ensure door closing is not obstructed by contents
stored in your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before plac-
ing in product.
9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set-point that
meets your personal preference and provides the
proper storage for your stored contents.
11. When on vacation or away from home for extended pe-
riods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable tem-
perature for the stored contents.
12. Set the control to the "off" position if cleaning the unit
requires the door to be open for an extended period of
time.

Product Sounds:
Your new refrigerator/freezer may make sounds unfamiliar
to you. These sounds normally indicate that the refrigera-
tor/freezer is operating correctly. Note that hard surfaces
around your product installation may make sounds more
noticeable.
Following is a list of normal operating sounds that you may
hear from your new appliance:
1. The compressor will cycle on and off to provide cooling
2. The condenser fan will cycle on and off with the com-
3. The evaporator fan will also cycle with the compressor
4. Automatic defrost requires the use of an electric heater
5. Defrost is controlled with a mechanical timer. During the
6. When the compressor cycles off you may temporarily
7. Faint popping noises may be heard at any time resulting
8. If your unit is equipped with an icemaker you will hear a

as required. You may hear a click when the compressor
cycles on, and may also hear pulsating, and/or, a high-
pitched hum sound when the compressor is running.
Run time may vary due to ambient temperature, usage/
door openings, and warm food loads.
pressor to remove heat from the product. When running
you may hear a motor hum, and an air rush noise as air
is forced through the condenser heat exchanger.
to provide cooling in the storage compartments. When
running you may hear a motor hum and air noise. These
noises will be noticeably louder when the storage com-
partment doors are opened.
to periodically remove frost from the evaporator heat
exchanger. When in defrost you may hear a sizzling
sound as water may contact the heater element. Ad-
ditionally, during defrost you may hear water dripping or
running as the defrost water is routed to the drain pan.
compressor off cycle, in a quiet environment, you may
hear a faint motor running, and/or clock ticking sound.
hear gurgling, boiling, or water flowing sounds. This re-
sults from the flow of refrigerant through the refriger-
ant tubing as the system pressures equalize during the
off cycle.
from thermal contraction and expansion of components
in the compartments as temperatures change throughout
the refrigeration cycle.
buzzing sound when the water supply solenoid valve is
activated. You will also periodically hear the ice harvest
which includes motor running noise, cracking and move-
ment of cubes from the ice mold, and cubes dropping
into the ice storage bin.
