Proper Disposal of Your Old Refrigerator
WARNING: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away
your old refrigerator or freezer:
� Take off the doors.
� Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors or lid from your old appliance.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous,
even if they will sit for "just a few days." If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help
prevent accidents.
Important information to know about disposal of refrigerants:
Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with federal and local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed, EPA-
certified refrigerant technician in accordance with established
procedures.

Do Not Use Mechanical Devices to Defrost Refrigerator.
Do Not Puncture Refrigerant Tubing.
Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically.
However, clean both sections about once a month to avoid
buildup of odors. Wipe up spills immediately.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
NOTE: Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, flammable fluids, cleaning waxes,
concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers containing
petroleum products on plastic parts, interior, and door liners or
gaskets. Do not use paper towels, scouring pads, or other harsh
cleaning tools. Stainless steel models have a coating. Do Not use
regular stainless steel cleaning products. Do Not use stainless
steel cleaner or polish and use only mild soap, water, and soft
microfiber cloth to avoid damage to the stainless steel protective
coating. Paper towels scratch and may dull the clear coat of the
painted door. To avoid possible damage, use only clean cloths to
polish and wipe the door.
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Hand-wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a
mild detergent in warm water.
