New Fridge! Loud Clunk Several Times Per Hour.

My guess is the loud clunk is the activation of the water fill solenoid. We are not using the internal water dispenser and the fridge is not connected to the water line. Is there a way to disable that fill function???  Or could that noise emanate from some other function?
