IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General Safety
• Do not store or use gasoline, or other flammable liquids, near this or any
other appliance. Read product labels for warnings regarding flammability and
other hazards.
• Do not operate the refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.
• Avoid contact with any moving parts of the automatic ice maker.
• Remove all staples from the carton to avoid cut injuries. Staples can also
damage finishes if they come in contact with other appliances or furniture.
Child Safety
Packing Materials:
• Packing cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, plastic sheets or stretch
wrap may become airtight chambers and can quickly cause suffocation.
• Destroy or recycle the product’s carton, plastic bags, and any other exterior
wrapping material immediately after the refrigerator is unpacked. Children
should never play with these items.
Child Entrapment And Suffocation:
• These problems are not limited to the past. Whether
junked, abandoned or temporarily stored (even for a
few hours), unattended refrigerators and freezers are
dangerous. Please take the precautions listed below.
Proper Disposal Of Refrigerators And Freezers
Before you throw away your old refrigerator/freezer:
• Remove the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so children may not easily
climb inside.
• Have refrigerant removed by a qualified service
technician.
