IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Instructions
• DO NOT store or use gasoline, or
other flammable liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance. Read
product labels for warnings regard-
ing flammability and other hazards.
• DO NOT operate the refrigerator in
the presence of explosive fumes.
• Avoid contact with any moving parts
of automatic ice maker.
• Remove all staples from the carton.
Staples can cause severe cuts, and
also destroy finishes if they come in
contact with other appliances
or furniture.
IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Some old refrigerators may have a
cooling system that used CFCs or
HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). 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 disposing of an old refrigerator,
make sure the refrigerant is removed
for proper disposal by a qualified
technician. Intentionally released
refrigerant may subject one to fines
and imprisonment under provisions of
environmental legislation.
Before disposing of an old
refrigerator/freezer:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children
may not easily climb inside.
• Have refrigerant removed by a
qualified service technician.
WARNING
Do not use electrical appliances inside
the food storage compartments of the
appliance unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.
Child Safety
Destroy or recycle the carton, plastic
bags, and any exterior wrapping material
immediately after the refrigerator 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.
Proper Disposal of Refrigerator
or Freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or aban-
doned refrigerators or freezers are still
dangerous – even if they will sit for “just
a few days”. When disposing of an old
refrigerator or freezer, please follow the in-
structions below to help prevent accidents.
Proper Disposal of Refrigerators/Freezers
We strongly encourage responsible appli-
ance recycling/disposal methods. Check
with the utility company or visit energy-
star.gov/recycle for more information on
recycling an old refrigerator.
