REFRIGERATOR

 

SAFETY

Proper Disposal of Your

Old Refrigerator

IMPORTANT

: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems 

of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous 
– even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of 
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help 
prevent accidents.

Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

Take off the doors.

Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily 
climb inside.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you
what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all
safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or
“WARNING.” These words mean:
