"!i[ii_. NEVER unplug your refrigerator

_iii_.:; our from the outlet.
Your old refrigerato_ has a cooling system that used
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to
harm stratospheric ozone. If you are throwing
awayyourold 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 the federaI
Clean Air Act.
If your old refrigerator is still around
the house but not in use, be sure to
remove the doors. This will reduce the
possibility of danger to children
Repair or replace immediately all electric service
cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do nor use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length or at either the
plug or connector end.
When moving your refrigerator away from the
wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
After your refrigerator is in operation, do not
touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment,
particularly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may
adhere to the extremely cold surfaces.
Do not place fingers or hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while the refrigerator is
plugged in. This wilt help protect you from possible
injury. It will also pievent interference with the moving
parrs of the ejector mechanism, or with the hearing
element that releases the cubes°
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
Don't refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely. The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says:
"...You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have
thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold--below 40°E (4°C).
"...Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that
have any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen
and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should
be discarded, If the odor or color of any food is poot
or questionable, get rid of it. The food may be
dangerous ro eat.
"Even partial thawing and refieezing reduces the
eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables
and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats
is affected less than that of many other foods. Use
refrozen foods as soon as possible to save as much of
their eating quality as you can."
DO NOr allow children to climb, stand or hang
on the refrigerator doors or shelves in the
refrigerator. They could damage the refrigerator and
seriously injure themselves.
Unplug your refrigerator before
making any repairs. Note: We
strongly recommend that any servicing
be performed by a qualified individual.
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb,
unplug the refrigerator or turn off power at the
circuit breaker or fuse box in order to avoid contact
with a live wire filament. (A burned-out light bulb
may break when being replace&) Note: Moving the
control to the OFF position does not remove power
to the light circuit.
