TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS 4. HOW TO DEAL WITH CLAIMS 4-1. Sound Problems Checks and Measures I Explain general principles of sounds. "Whizz" sounds • All refrigerator when functioning properly have normal operating sound. The compressor and fan produce sounds. There is a fan in the freezer compartment which blows cool air to freezer and refrigerator compartments.
Page 61
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Problems Checks and Measures I Explain the flow of refrigerant. Sounds of water flowing • When the refrigerator stops, the water flowing sound happens. This sound happens when the liquid or vapor refrigerant flows from the evaporator to compressor. I Explain the characteriistics of moving parts.
