Warning:

WARNING

This product can expose you to chemicals including vinyl

chloride, which is known to the State of California to

cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive

harm. For more information go to

www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Note: IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe

Drinking and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the

Governor of California to publish a list of substances

known to the state to cause cancer, birth defect or other

reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn

customers of potential exposure to such substances. The

burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil

during self-cleaning can generate small amounts of

carbon monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in Self Clean

ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde

during the first several cleaning cycles. California lists

formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon

monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity.

Exposure to these substances can be minimized by:

Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.

Operating the unit according to the instructions in this

manual.
