1.6 Proper disposal of your
refrigerator or freezer
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigerators or freezers are
still dangerous – even if they will sit for
just a few days . If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator or freezer, follow the
instructions below to help prevent
accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible
appliance recycling/disposal methods.
Check with your utility company or visit

more information on recycling your old
refrigerator.
Before you throw away your old
refrigerator/freezer:
• Remove doors.
• Leave shelves in place so children may
not easily climb inside.
• Have it removed by a qualified service
technician.

IMPORTANT
CFC/HCFC Disposal
Your old refrigerator may have a
cooling system that used CFCs or
HCFCs (chlorofluorocarbons or
hydrochlorofluorocarbons). CFCs and
HCFCs are believed to harm
stratospheric ozone if released to the
atmosphere. Other refrigerants may
also cause harm to the environment if
released to the atmosphere.
If you are throwing away your old
refrigerator, make sure the refrigerant
is removed for proper disposal by a
qualified technician. If you intentionally
release refrigerant, you may be
subject to fines and imprisonment
under provisions of environmental
legislation.
