DANGER
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
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.
IMPORTANT:
Now that you have a new refrigerator, it is extremely important
that you dispose of your old appliance in a way that minimizes
the possibility that children will find it. There have been many
cases in years past of children crawling inside junked and
abandoned refigerators and becoming trapped or suffocated.
Contact your municipal waste disposal authority to find out the
best and safest way to dispose of your old refrigerator.
