element that releases the cubes. Do not place fingers or hands
on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is
plugged in.
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they

are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden
temperature changes or impact, such as bumping or dropping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small pieces if it
breaks.
