Kitchenaid refrigerator making rattling noise

Whenever the cooling cycle starts up, there is a rattling noise coming from the upper middle (I listened from the back). The noise goes away then comes back just before the cycle (fan) stops. It seems to be cooling OK and it makes ice. Inside top center there looks to be some sort of cover that looks like it can be removed to expose an area that the noise may be coming from but I cannot remove the cover. I'm afraid I may break it if I force it (plastic).

Kitchenaid refrigerator / freezer knocking noise

Hmmm. Makes sure it is not the fan inside the freezer. The compressor is not capable of loud noise since it is sealed and sits on rubber mount. The knocking might be due to the fan blade hitting ice build up. You should not see any frost in a freezer. If there is frost, you can defrost completely then set the fridge to a lower setting.
