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.
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 warning label has been attached to each gas-
fired unit manufactured by Jade Range.
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.
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.
