WARNING
Child Safety
• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exte-
rior wrapping material immediately after the
unit is unpacked. Children should never use
these items for play. Cartons covered with
rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch
wrap may become airtight chambers and
can quickly cause suffocation.
• An empty, discarded appliance is a very
dangerous attraction to children.
• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is
not in use, even if it is being discarded.
WARNING
Proper Disposal of Your Appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation 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
old appliance, please follow the instructions below
to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Check with your utility
company or visit www.recyclemyoldfridge.com for
more information on recycling your old appliance.
Before you throw away your
old appliance:
• Remove door.
• Leave shelves in place so children
may not easily climb inside.
• Have the refrigerant removed by a
qualified technician.
WARNING
Avoid fire hazard or electric shock. Do not
use an extension cord or an adapter plug.
Do not remove any prong from power cord.
Grounding type wall receptacle
Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
