I know any specifics on your refrigerator or your genset. But, some newer appliances MUST have grid-quality 120 VAC with 170 volts at the peaks of the cycles. The includes several newer refrigerators, washing machines, just about all battery chargers, etc. Most AC gensets only put 150 volts on the peaks. So, some things will not run.
The way around is - either use a voltage enhancer that raises the peak VAC by 10 %, or use a better genset. Some modern electronics will not run from any AC Gensets - except the "inverter" series that Yamaha, Honda, et. al sell. Those pricey inverter gensets are actually DC, not AC, but they run it through a full-wave inverter.
