a)
●
If your old refrigerator is
still
around
the house but not in use, be sure to
remove the doors.
This will reduce the
possibility of danger to children.
●
Don’t refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely.
The United States Department of
Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin
No. 69 says:
“..
.You
may safely refreeze frozen foods that have
thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are
still cold—below
40°F.
“..
.Thawed
ground meats, poultry or fish that have
any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen and
should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be
discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor
or questionable, get rid of it. The food may be
dangerous to eat.
“Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the
eating quality of foods, particularly fruits,
vegetables and prepared foods. The eating quality
of red meats is affected less than that of many other
foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to
save as much of their eating quality as you can.”
●
Unplug your refrigerator before
cleaning and making repairs.
NOTE:
We
strongly recommend that
any servicing be performed by a
qualified individual.
●

bulb,
unplug the
refrigerator or turn off the power at the circuit

a live wire filament. (A burned-out light bulb may
break when being replaced.)
NOTE:
Turning the
control to the OFF position does not remove
power to the light circuit.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in
the
vicinity of this or
any
other appliance.
