RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

the past. Junked or abandoned display cases are still
dangerous… even if they will sit for “just a few days.”
It is much safer if doors and lids are removed so
children cannot get trapped inside, leaving the shelves
in place will also deter children from trying to climb
inside.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Depending on the country where the unit is located there
will be officially approved ways of disposing of your
used equipment.
