Safety first
Child entrapment and suffocation are not probiems of the past. Junked or abandoned freezers are still dan gerous...even if they wili "just sit in the garage for a few days.”
If you are getting rid of your old freezer, do it safely. Please read the enclosed safety booklet from the Association of Home Appliance Manu­facfurers. Help prevent accidents.
