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.
WARNING
1 Read these instructions.
2 Keep these instructions.
3 Heed all warnings.
4 Follow all instructions.
5 Do not use this appliance near water.
6 Clean only with a damp cloth or sponge using a non-corrosive, neutral detergent. Remove residual detergent with clear
water.
7 Do not block any ventilation openings. This includes placing large amounts of food in front of the air outlets on the rear
walls of the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
8 Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
9 Do not install near any heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus that produce heat.
10 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one
wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third
prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
11 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where it exits from the appliance.
12 Do not attempt to modify or extend the power cord of your refrigerator.
13 Unplug your refrigerator during lightning storms or when it will not be used for long periods of time.
14 Make sure that the available AC power matches the voltage requirements of your refrigerator.
15 Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This could result in an electric shock.
16 Unplug the power cord by holding the plug, never by pulling the cord.
17 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when your refrigerator has been damaged in any
way, such as the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into your
refrigerator, your refrigerator has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
18 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your refrigerator to rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and
no objects filled with liquids should be placed on top of it.
19 Do not use extension cords or ungrounded (two prong) adapters. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician install an outlet near your refrigerator. Use of an extension cord can negatively affect your refrigerator’s
performance.
20 Your refrigerator is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of your refrigerator by a person responsible for their safety.
21 Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with your refrigerator.
22 If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified person, in
order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator. Failure to do so can result
in death or brain damage.
Important information about disposal of refrigerants: Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed, EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with
established procedures.
