IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
* The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement
Act
requires
the Governor of California
to publish a list of substances known to the state
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers
of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas
appliances can cause minor exposure to
four
of these substances,
namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused
prirntily
by
the
incom~lete
combustion of natural
gas
or
LP
fuels,
Pro~erly
adjusted burners,
indi;ated
by
bluish rather than a yellow
flame,
will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these
substances can be minimized by venting with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
Fluorescent light bulbs and safety valves on
standing pilot ranges contain mercury.
If your
model has these features, hey must be recycled
according to local, state and federal codes.
