DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE FREEZER
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators and
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, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
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.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against
the use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed (in the United
States) or a CSA-listed (in Canada), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding
type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.
CFC Disposal
Your old freezer has a cooling system that used
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are believed to
harm stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away your old freezer, make sure
the CFC refrigerant is removed for proper disposal
by a qualified servicer. If you intentionally release
this CFC refrigerant you can be subject to fines and
imprisonment under provisions of the Federal
Clean Air Act.
