IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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
When using your appliance, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
• Have the installer show you the location of
the cooktop gas shut-off valve and how to
turn it off if necessary.
• Be sure all packing materials are removed
from the cooktop before operating it to
prevent fire or smoke damage should the
packing material ignite.
• Locate the cooktop out of kitchen traffic
path and out of drafty locations and areas
with poor air circulation.
