Default Strange refrigerator noises

Every once in a while, I hear noises from the top freezer part. I

an empty tray under the cube maker but nothing appears in it after the
rattling sound.

There is a handle that when raised is supposed to stop the ice maker
function. Even when up, I still hear the sound.

Suggestions?

I found the owner's manual. Here's what it says:

"Certain sounds may accompany the various cycles of
the ice maker. The motor may have a slight hum, the
cubes will rattle as they fall into an empty storage pan
and the water valve may click or €śbuzz€ť occasionally."

Problem is, I hear the rattling even if not cubes are falling into the pan.
