floor,walls,andcountertopscanamplifythesesounds.Thefollowingdescribesthesoundsthatmaybenewtoyou
and what may be creating them.
■WHIR-WhenOpalisrstturnedon,youmaynotice
the condenser fan spinning.
■BUZZ-Whenthewaterpumprstturnson,itmaybe
dryandslightlynoisy.Onceitislledwithwater,the
noisereducessignicantly.
■RATTLE-Rattlingnoisesmaybeproducedfromthe
flowoftherefrigerant.Thesenoisesshouldreduce
signicantlyoncetherefrigerantsystemhasstabilized.
■GURGLE-Whentherefrigerantsystemshutso󰀨,there
maybeabriefgurgleastherefrigerantstopsflowing.
■HUM-Thecompressorisamotor.Itproducesalow
toned humming sound while it is running.
■CLICK-Asnuggeticeisproduced,itdropsintotheice
drawer.Therstnuggetsproducedaretheloudest,as

thisnoisereducessignicantly.
■SQUEAK–WhenOpalisinneedofdefrosting,it
may start to squeak as ice starts to build up around
the mechanisms. The defost cycle is automatic, and
maytake30-45minutes.Duringthistime,thefront
button won’t respond. More frequent squeaking usually
requires white vinegar cleaning to remove internal
mineral scale buildup.
