Important Safety Instructions (Continued)
Proper Disposal of Your Appliance
Risk of Child Entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation 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.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Unit:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children may not
easily climb inside.
WARNING
These guidelines must be followed to
ensure that safety mechanisms in this
unit will operate properly.
IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a
cooling system that used CFCs or
HCFCs (chlorouorocarbons or
hydrochlorouorocarbons). CFCs and
HCFCs are believed to harm stratospheric
ozone if released to the atmosphere. Other
refrigerants may also cause harm to the
environment if released to the atmosphere.
If you are throwing away your old
refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant is
removed for proper disposal by a qualied
technician. If you intentionally release
refrigerant, you may be subject to nes
and imprisonment under provisions of
environmental legislation.
• Do not store or use gasoline, or other
ammable liquids in the vicinity of this or
any other appliance. Read product labels
for warnings regarding ammability and
other hazards.
• Do not operate the unit in the presence of
explosive fumes.
• Remove and discard any spacers used to
secure the shelves during shipping. Small
objects are a choke hazard to children.
• Remove all staples from the carton.
Staples can cause severe cuts, and also
destroy nishes if they come in contact
with other appliances or furniture.
Child Safety
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic bags, and
any exterior wrapping material immediately
after the unit 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 suocation.
