PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD FREEZER OR REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned freezers or refrigerators 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 these
instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Freezer or Refrigerator:
Take off the doors or lid.
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.
Unpacking
Remove Packaging Materials
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the
freezer. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive
with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or
abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can
damage the surface of your freezer. For more information, see
“Safety.”
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using your freezer, follow these basic precautions:
WARNING:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away
from freezer.
Use two or more people to move and install freezer.

WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors or lid from your old freezer or
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
Important information to know about disposal of
refrigerants:
Dispose of freezer in accordance with Federal and Local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,
EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with
established procedures.
INSTALLING YOUR FREEZER
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install freezer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
When Moving Your Freezer:
Your freezer is heavy. When moving the freezer for
cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with cardboard
or hardboard to avoid floor damage. Always pull the freezer
straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the
freezer when trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.
