. After your refrigerator is in operation, do not touch the cold surfaces, particdarly when hands are damp or wet. Skin may adhere to these extremely cold surfaces.

. DO not place fingers or hands on the automatic icemating mechanism whtie the refrigerator is plugged in. This will prevent contact with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with the heating element that releases the cubes.

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 sti~ contain ice crystrds or if they are still cold—below 40°F.

“. . .Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have my 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 poor or questionable, get rid of it. The food may be dangerous to eat.

“Even partkd thawing and_ reduce the eating quality of fds, partictiarly 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:’

myour 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.
