may not easily climb inside.
• If your refrigerator has an automatic
icemaker, avoid contact with the moving
parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the
heating element that releases the cubes. Do
not place fingers or hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator
is plugged in.
• Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning
and making repairs. NOTE: We strongly
recommend that any servicing be performed
by a qualified individual.
• Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, the
refrigerator should be unplugged in order to
avoid contact with a live wire filament. (A
burned-out light bulb may break when being
replaced.) NOTE: Turning control to "0"
does not remove power to the light circuit.
• Do not refreeze frozen foods which have
thawed completely.
CFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator has a cooling system that
used CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are
believed to harm stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old refrigerator,
make sure the CFC refrigerant is removed for
proper disposal by a qualified servicer. If you
intentionally release this CFC refrigerant you
can be subject to fines and imprisonment
under provisions of environmental legislation.
However, if you must use an extension cord, it
is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed,
3-wire grounding type appliance extension
cord having a grounding type plug and outlet
and that the electrical rating of the cord be
15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.
