Proper Disposal of
Your Old Refrigerator
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems
of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous
– even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of
your old refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help
prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
■ Take off the doors.
■ Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
What’s New Behind the Doors?
Your Whirlpool ® French Door Refrigerator comes equipped with various innovative storage and energy efficient features.
Energy and Normal Operating Sounds
Your new French Door Bottom Mount refrigerator has been
designed to optimize energy efficiency, and better regulate
temperatures to match cooling demand. You may notice that it
operates differently from your previously owned refrigerator. It is
normal for the high-efficiency compressor to run for extended
periods of time at varying speeds in order to consume only the
energy necessary for optimum efficiency. In addition, during
various stages of the cooling cycle, you may hear normal
operating sounds that are unfamiliar to you.
More Storage Space
The French Door Bottom Mount has the most fresh food storage
space available, including a full-width, temperature controlled,
pantry drawer perfect for storing veggie trays or party platters.
In-Door-Ice ® Ice Dispensing System
The ice storage bin located in the door provides an entire extra
shelf of storage space, and the storage bin is removable for easy
access to filtered ice.
Dual Evaporator (on some models)
The refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment have
separate evaporators to provide fresh food and frozen food with
separate climates. The refrigerator stays cool and humid for the
optimum storage of fresh foods while the freezer stays cold and
dry. Humidity from the refrigerator does not mix with dry freezer
air, so frost is controlled, which reduces freezer burn. Since no air
is shared between the refrigerator and freezer, the transfer of food
odors and tastes from the refrigerator to the freezer is eliminated.
Water Filter
NSF ® Certified filter reduces chlorine taste and odor, particulates
(class I), lead, and mercury. Replacing the water filter every
6 months ensures clean, filtered drinking water.
Air Filter
An air filter is 15 times more powerful than baking soda at
reducing common food odors inside the refrigerator.
Produce Preserver (on some models)
Ethylene is a natural gas produced by fruits and vegetables to
promote ripening. The Produce Preserver absorbs ethylene, to
delay the over-ripening of fresh produce. As a result, certain
produce items will stay fresh longer.
CoolVox™ Kitchen Sound System (on some models)
We made the kitchen pulse with energy by adding music where
it’s never been before. The CoolVox™ kitchen sound system pairs
easily with smart phones, tablets or other Bluetooth
®† mobile
devices.
Water Dispenser with Measured Fill (on some models)
The measured fill feature allows you to dispense the desired
amount of filtered water.
LED Lighting
The LED lights do not ever need to be replaced.
MicroEdge ® Glo Shelves (on some models)
Industry-exclusive MicroEdge ® Glo shelves make every snack
stand out in your refrigerator. By moving LED lighting to a new
spot under the shelves, this leading-edge technology elevates the
look and feel of your refrigerator.
Door Alarm
A helpful alarm sounds when the refrigerator door or freezer
drawer is left ajar.
Power Outage Indicator
If the power should go out while you are away from home, this
indicator will let you know the refrigerator has been without power.
WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
Important information to know about disposal of
refrigerants:
