Suffocation Hazard

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.
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.
