You will be able to hear a pulsing sound coming from the ventilators and the evaporator. The speed of the ventilator can speed up when you open the refrigerator door. • After each cycle you will hear a dripping sound due to the refrigerant liquid in your refrigerator. • Contraction and expansion of the inner walls can cause a slight popping sound. • You will hear a dripping sound caused during the thawing cycle. • During the defrosting cycle the water might cause a dripping sound. • You can hear some tight air sound over the capacitor caused by the fan. • The thawing timer will make a "click" sound when such timer will start and finish.
