The State of California enacted the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act of 1986, (Prop.65), which “prohibits any person in the course of doing business from
knowingly and intentionally exposing any individual to a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity without first giving clear and reasonable
warning to such individuals.” The Governor’s Scientific Advisory Panel added carbon
monoxide to the list of hazardous chemicals known to cause reproductive harm.
In order to establish full compliance with Proposition 65, a yellow warning label has been
attached to each gas-fired.
Carbon monoxide would not be present in concentrations that would pose a “significant
risk” to the consumer when the equipment is installed, operated and maintained as follows:
1. Installed in accordance with all local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
current National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 Latest Addenda.
2. Installed under a properly designed and operating exhaust hood.
3. Connected to the type of gas for which the unit is equipped.
4. Proper appliance pressure regulator installed on the gas supply line and adjusted for
the manifold pressure marked on the rating plate.
5. Adequate air supply to the unit.
6. The equipment is operated in the manner intended and using the proper utensil for that
type of appliance.
7. Keep the equipment clean and have it checked periodically.
8. Burner air adjustments, mechanical maintenance and repairs must be performed by
qualified service personnel
Warning If the equipment is not installed, operated and maintained in accordance with the
above requirements, concentrations of carbon monoxide in excess of the established
limits could be present in the kitchen environment.
ALL PERSONNEL IN THE WORKPLACE WHO MAY BE SUBJECT TO ANY
EXPOSURE OF CARBON MONOXIDE MUST BE WARNED OF SUCH POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE. THIS WARNING SHOULD BE CONVEYED IN A MANNER SO THAT IT IS
CLEARLY UNDERSTOOD BY THE EMPLOYEE. THE EMPLOYEE MUST BE ASKED IF
IN FACT HE OR SHE UNDERSTANDS THE CORRECT METHOD OF OPERATION OF
THE EQUIPMENT AND THAT A RISK OF EXPOSURE EXISTS IF THE EQUIPMENT IS
OPERATED IMPROPERLY.
WARNING
If not installed, operated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, this product could expose you to fuel or fuel combustion substances, which
can cause death or serious illness and which are known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
