Combustible Material Storage
Combustible material such as ether, gasoline, hexane, naphtha, benzine, butane,
propane, alcohols, acitone, benzol, lacquer solvent, or natural gas SHOULD NOT BE
stored in a refrigerator. These materials are classified as hazardous and constitute
a dangerous application of the refrigerator.

Keeping sealed system area free of litter,

Litter, including paper or rags, woodshavings or other combustible material, should
not be stored in the area of the absorption system behind the refrigerator. Often
rags or paper towels (etc.) will be saturated with a combustible cleaning solvent,
Such materials must not be allowed in the space behind the refrigerator because of
the gas flame which is used to power the refrigerator. Even when the refrigerator
is operated on electricity, litter must not be stored in this area because of
heat given off by the refrigerating absorption system. It is also of utmost
importance that the air circulation round the unit’s parts behind the cabinet is
unrestricted. Good refrigeration performance is dependent upon adequate ventilation
of the refrigeration unit.
3. UNUSED OR ABANDONED REFRIGERATORS

An unused or abandoned refrigerator or freezer in your basement or garage poses a
hazard to children.

When you discard a refrigerator or freezer . . .

COMPLETELY REMOVE THE DOOR. In many municipalities, this is the law. At any rate, it
takes only a moment with a screwdriver. Do this as soon as possible. Also, a s s o o n
as you can, have the old unit carted away and destroyed before it attracts a
child’s curiosity and endangers his life.
