IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Wafer and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known tothe state to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposu re to such substances. Gas ap- pliances can cause minor exposure to four of these sub- stances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde
and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or L.P. fuels. Properly adjusted ranges, indi- cated 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 ventilation fan or hood.
