INTRODUCTION 3
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and
suffocation are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still
dangerous – even if they will sit for "just a
few days." If you are getting rid of your old
refrigerator, please follow these instructions
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.
