CFC DISPOSAL

Old refrigeration products have
cooling systems that used CFCs
(chlorofluorocarbons). CFCs are
believed to harm stratospheric ozone.

If you are throwing away an old
refrigeration product, 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 environmental legislation.

wDANGER: RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigeration products are still
dangerous. . . even if they will sit for “just
a few days.” If you are getting rid of your
old appliance, please follow these
instructions to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old
Refrigeration Product:

• Take off the doors.

• Leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb inside

.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE IT IS USED, THE APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED
AND LOCATED AS DESCRIBED IN THIS GUIDE.

wDANGER! RISQUES POUR LES ENFANTS

Les enfants pris au piège ou morts d’asphyxie
sont toujours d’actualité. Les appareils de
réfrigération abandonés sont toujours aussi
dangereux, même si on n’attend que “quelque
jours” pour s’en débarasser. Si vous ne gardez
pas votre ancien appareil, veuillez suivre les
directives ci-dessous afin de prévenir les
accidents.

Avant de vous débarasser de votre vieux
appareil de réfrigération:

• Démontez les portes.

• Laissez les clayettes en place afin d’empêcher
les enfants de grimper à l’intérieur.

SE DÉBARRASSER DU CFC

Les vieux appareils de réfrigération ont un
système de refroidissement qui a utilisé les
CFC (chlorofluorocarbones). Les CFCs sont
jugés nocifs pour l’ozone stratosphérique.

Si vous débarrassez de votre viel appareil de
réfrigération, assurez-vous que le frigorigène
avec CFC soit enlevé correctement par un

technicien qualifié. Si vous libérez
intentionnellement ce frigogène avec CFC
vouz pouvez être soumis aux contraventions
et à l’emprisonnement après les stipulations
des lois sur l’environment.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord. For personal safety, this
appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is
equipped with a 3-prong (grounding)
plug which mates with a standard 3-prong
(grounding) wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make sure the
outlet is properly grounded.

Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet
is encountered, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.

The appliance should always be plugged
into its own individual electrical outlet
which has a voltage rating that matches
the rating plate. This provides the best
performance and also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.

Never unplug an appliance by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip the
plug firmly and pull straight out from
the outlet.

Repair or replace immediately all power
cords that have become frayed or
otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord
that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end.

When moving the appliance, be careful
not to roll over or damage the power cord.

Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against the use of an
adapter plug.

However, if you must use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a temporary
connection may be made to a properly
grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use of a
UL-listed adapter available at most local
hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall
outlet to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.

When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter in
place with one hand while pulling the
power cord plug with the other hand.
If this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with
repeated use.

If the adapter ground terminal breaks, DO
NOT USE the appliance until a proper
ground has been established.

Attaching the adapter ground terminal to
a wall outlet cover screw does not ground
the appliance unless the cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and the wall
outlet is grounded through the house
wiring. You should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Use of an adapter plug will increase
the clearance needed for the back of
the appliance

.

USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS (Use of adapter plugs not permitted in Canada.)
