together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
8. Depending on the model, raise the front of the refrigerator so
it rolls more easily OR raise the leveling screws so they don't
scrape the floor. See "Adjust the Door(s)" or "Door Closing
and Door Alignment."

The motor seems to run too much
Your new refrigerator may run longer than your old one due to
its high-efficiency compressor and fans. The unit may run even
longer if the room is warm, a large food load is added, doors are
opened often, or if the doors have been left open.
The refrigerator seems noisy
Refrigerator noise has been reduced over the years. Due to
this reduction, you may hear intermittent noises from your new
refrigerator that you did not notice from your old model. Below
are listed some normal sounds with explanations.
Buzzing - heard when the water valve opens to fill the ice
■
maker
Pulsating - fans/compressor adjusting to optimize
■
performance
Hissing/Rattling - flow of refrigerant, movement of water
■
lines, or from items placed on top of the refrigerator
Sizzling/Gurgling - water dripping on the heater during
■
defrost cycle
Popping - contraction/expansion of inside walls,
■
especially during initial cool-down
Water running - may be heard when ice melts during the
■
defrost cycle and water runs into the drain pan
Creaking/Cracking - occurs as ice is being ejected from
■
the ice maker mold.
The doors will not close completely
Door blocked open? Move food packages away from
■
door.
Bin or shelf in the way? Push bin or shelf back in the
■
correct position.
