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, we attached a yellow warning label to each gas
fired fryer manufactured by Keating of Chicago, Inc.
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:
