What type of electromagnetic waves do refridgerator a use?

I have to do a science presentation that goes for 10 mins which is based loosely on what type of electromagnetic energy is used by a refridgerator. (E.g. Gamma, ultraviolet etc.) can anyone please help me out by posting an answer below in easy to read terminology. Or a link to a website would also be appreciated. Or if anyone is truly awesome, could I have some ideas for a fun and possibly chocolate included experiment to show this type of wave?

Thanks guys xo

    The only electromagnetic waves used in a fridge are from the little light inside. I suppose one could use a moving wave in the motor, but they usually just use fairly standard 220v 50hz motors.
