READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
THIS REFRIGERATOR.

  

FOR YOUR  SAFETY

Do not store or use gasoline, or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Read
product labels for flammability and other warnings.

 

 

CHILD SAFETY

• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior wrapping

material immediately after the refrigerator is unpacked.
Children should never use these items to play. Cartons
covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or
stretch wrap may become airtight chambers, and can
quickly cause suffocation.

• Remove all staples from the carton. Staples can cause

severe cuts, and destroy finishes if they come in
contact with other appliances or furniture.

• An empty, discarded ice box, refrigerator, or freezer is a

very dangerous attraction to children.

• Remove and discard any spacers used to secure the

shelves during shipping. Small objects are a choke
hazard to children.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is not in use,
even if it is being discarded.

Proper Disposal of Your Refrigerator/Freezer

                     

Risk of child entrapment. Child

entrapment and suffocation are not problems of
the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators or
freezers are still dangerous — even if they will
sit for "just a few days." If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator or freezer, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.

BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR OLD
REFRIGERATOR/FREEZER:

• Remove door.

• Leave shelves in place so

children may not easily
climb inside.

• Have refrigerant removed by

a qualified service
technician.
