the forming of moisture.
• When the parts inside shrink and expand due to temperature change,
such sound can be heard.

compartment door is opened and shut slightly of itself. That’s because
of the condensed air in the fresh food compartment run to the freezer

doors frequently. When you store watery food unwrapped, frost may
also form. It is all because of the moisture in the air being trapped
