Refrigerator Safety
Your safety is important to us.
This guide contains statements under warning sym-
bols. Please pay special attention to these symbols
and follow any instructions given. Here is a brief
explanation of the use of the warning symbol.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read all instructions before using the refrigerator.
• Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are
still dangerous ... even if they will "just sit in the
garage a few days."
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, do
it safely. Please read the enclosed safety booklet
from the Association of Home Appliance Manufac-
turers. Help prevent accidents.
• Never allow children to operate, play with, or
crawl inside the refrigerator.
• Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable
fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or
explosion.
• FOR YOUR SAFETY •
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE
VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE.
THE FUMES CAN CREATE A FIRE HAZARD OR
EXPLOSION.
