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 primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a 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.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Have the installer show you the location of the cooktop gas shutoff valve and how to shut it off if necessary.

Your cooktop can be converted for use with either type of gas. See the Installation Instructions. Your model is factory adjusted for use with natural gas.

■Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your cooktop unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other service should be referred to a qualified technician.
