PROPER DISPOSAL (OF OLD REFRIGERATION UNIT)
DANGER
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigeration Unit:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigeration units are still dangerous... even if
they will sit for “just a few days.”
IMPORTANT:
Now that you have a new ice machine, it is extremely important that you
dispose of your old appliance in a way that minimizes the possibility that
children will find it. There have been many cases in years past of children
crawling inside junked and abandoned refrigeration units and becoming
trapped or suffocated.
