Proper Disposal of Your Appliance
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
appliances are still dangerous – even if they
will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting
rid of your old appliance, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible
appliance recycling/disposal methods. Check
with your utility company or visit www.
recyclemyoldfridge.com for more information
on recycling your old appliance.
Before you throw away your
old appliance:
• Remove door.
• Leave shelves in place so children
may not easily climb inside.
• Have the refrigerant removed by
a qualied technician.
Electrical Information
These guidelines must be followed to ensure
that safety mechanisms in the design of this
appliance will operate properly.
• Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical
rating. The power cord of the appliance is
equipped with a three-prong grounding plug
for your protection against electrical shock
hazards. It must be plugged directly into a
properly grounded three-prong receptacle,
protected with a 15-amp time delay fuse
or circuit breaker. The receptacle must be
installed in accordance with the local codes
and ordinances. Consult a qualied electri-
cian. Receptacles protected by Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are NOT RECOM-
MENDED. Do NOT use an extension cord or
adapter plug.
• If the power cord is damaged, it should be
replaced by an authorized service technician
to prevent any risk.
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug rmly,
and pull straight out from the receptacle to
prevent damaging the power cord.
• Unplug the appliance before cleaning and
before replacing a light bulb to avoid electri-
cal shock.
• If voltage varies by 10% or more, appliance
performance may be aected. Operating the
unit with insucient power can damage the
motor. Such damage is not covered under
the warranty. If you suspect your household
voltage is high or low, consult your power
company for testing.
• To prevent the appliance from being turned
o accidentally, do not plug unit into an outlet
controlled by a wall switch or pull cord.
• Do not pinch, knot, or bend power cord in
any manner.

concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
• Destroy carton, plastic bags, and any exterior
wrapping material immediately after the unit
is unpacked. Children should never use these
items for play. Cartons covered with rugs, bed-
spreads, plastic sheets or stretch wrap may
become airtight chambers and can quickly
cause suocation.
• An empty, discarded appliance is a very
dangerous attraction to children.
• Remove the door(s) of any appliance that is
not in use, even if it is being discarded.
