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 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 L.P. fuels. Properly adjusted appliances, indicated by the bluish
rather than a yellow flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can
be minimized by further venting with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood. The cooktop, as shipped from the factory, can only be operated with natural gas. High flames and toxic fumes could cause serious injury.
If you wish to use your cooktop with L.P. gas, you must convert
the cooktop following the procedure found in the installation
instructions shipped with your appliance.
