Important Safety Notice and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires
the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the State of California to
cause cancer or reproductive harm and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential
exposures to such substances. Users of this
appliance are hereby warned that when the oven
is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be
some low-level exposure to some of the listed
substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure
to these substances can be minimized by properly
venting the oven to the outdoors by opening
the windows and/or door in the room where the
appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
Important notice regarding pet birds:
NEVER
keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms
where the fumes from the kitchen could reach.
Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system.
Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle
may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released
due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and
overheated non-stick cookware may be equally
harmful.
