Important Safety Instructions

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using your

refrigerator, follow these basic precautions:

If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator,

do it safely. Help prevent accidents.

Never allow children to operate, play with, or

crawl inside the refrigerator.

Never clean refrigerator parts with flammable

fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or

explosion.
