The California Safe Drinking Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986
(Proposition 65) requires the Gover-
nor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the State of Cal-
ifornia to cause cancer or reproduc-
tive harm, and requires businesses to
warn customers of potential expo-
sures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby
warned that the burning of gas can re-
sult in low-level exposure to some of
the listed substances, including ben-
zene, formaldehyde and soot, due pri-
marily to the incomplete combustion
of natural gas or liquid petroleum (LP)
fuels. Properly adjusted burners will
minimize incomplete combustion. Ex-
posure to these substances can also
be minimized by properly venting the
burners to the outdoors.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING
PET BIRDS: Never keep pet birds in
the kitchen or in rooms where the
fumes from the kitchen could reach.
Birds have a very sensitive respiratory
system. Fumes released during an
oven self-cleaning cycle may be
harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes re-
leased due to overheated cooking oil,
fat, margarine and overheated non-
stick cookware may be equally harm-
ful.
