OLD MODELS MAY IGNITE

Fridge warning issued

OWNERS OF certain 13 cu.ft., two-door frost-free refrigerators produced under the brand names Westinghouse, RCA, General Electric or Hotpoint are warned to stop using them immediately because they pose a possible fire hazard.

Investigation of 15 incidents revealed that an electrical connec- tion inside the drip tray heater deteriorates over a period of sev- eral years and may overheat, caus- ing the plastic drip tray to ignite.

This type of heater was used in approximately 199,000 refrigerators built between 1968 to 1978. Models having the following prefix numbers are involved:

Westinghouse (built from 1968 to 1976) RH313, RHJ21, RHK21, RLJ2, RPJ3, RPK3, GJ21, RJJ3, RJJ4, RJK3, RHI30L, RTI30L, RTI30M, RTI30P, RTIZIP, RT1I33P, RT135P, RT130R, RT!31R, RTI32R, RT133R, RT1I35SR, RFI3IR, RF133R.

Be a home environmentalist

THE NORTH Shore Neighbour- hood House is sponsoring a one- night lecture called Hew to be a Home Environmentalist.

This talk is about changing your lifestyle so that you can become a conserver rather than a consumer. You will learn practical tips on recycling and using safe products in your home.

The lecture is being led by An- drea Miller, winner of the Home- makers Award and the GVRD Recycling Award. Miller has held numerous in-home coffee parties in which she has inspired many people to begin recycling.

The lecture will be held Thurs- day, Jan. 25, 7:30 to 9:30 p.m.

There is a $3 fee and partici- pants are asked to pre-register as space is limited. Phone 987-8138 for more information or drop in to tie Neighbourhood House at 225 East 2nd St., North Vancouver.
