nMPORTANT 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 business-
es to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, car- bon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natu- ral 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 further by
venting with an open window or using a ventila- tion fan or hood,
