For Your Safety
• Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance. Read
product labels for warnings regarding
flammability and other hazards.
• Do not operate the unit in the presence
of explosive fumes.
• Avoid contact with any moving parts of
automatic ice maker.
• Remove all staples from the carton.

destroy finishes if they come in contact
with other appliances or furniture.
Child Safety
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic
bags, and any exterior wrapping material

bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap
may become airtight chambers and can
quickly cause suffocation.
Important Safety Instructions
Proper disposal of your appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
appliances are still dangerous – even if they
will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting
rid of your appliance, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with
Federal and Local regulations. Before you
throw away your
old unit:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in
place so children
may not easily
climb inside.
WARNING
Please read all safety instructions
before using your new appliance.
