IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
In refrigerators with automatic ice makers, avoid contact
with the moving parts of the ejector mechanism, or with
the heating element that releases the cubes. Do not place
fingers or hands on the automatic ice making mechanism
while the refrigerator is plugged in.
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water
when they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may break if
exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such
as bumping or dropping. Tempered glass is designed to
shatter into many small pieces if it breaks.
Keep fingers out of the "pinch point" areas; clearances
between the doors and between the doors and cabinet are
necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children
are in the area.
Do not touch the cold surfaces in the freezer compartment
when hands are damp or wet., skin may stick to these
extremely cold surfaces.
Do not refreeze frozen foods which have thawed
completely.
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, the refrigerator
should be unplugged in order to avoid contact with a live
wire filament. (A burned-out light bulb may break when
being replaced.)
