SAFETY INFORMATION
HOW TO SAFELY DISPOSE OF USED
REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT
DANGER!
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned display cases are
still dangerous… even if they will sit for “just a few
days.”
It is much safer if doors and lids are removed so
children cannot get trapped inside, leaving the
shelves in place will also deter children from trying to
climb inside.
If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow the instructions below to help prevent
accidents. Depending on the country where the
unit is located there will be officially approved ways
of disposing of your used equipment.
It is important that care is taken in disposing of used
refrigerators or freezers. 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.
