Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors or lid from your old freezer or
refrigerator.
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 freezers or refrigerators are still
dangerous ... even if they will sit for "just a few days."
Before you throw away your old freezer or refrigerator:
= Take off the doors or lid.
m Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
