This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to
cause cancer, 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 LP fuels. Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete
combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to
the outdoors.

Since the washer must also connect to the cold water, a “Y” connector
is inserted to allow both inlet hoses to make that connection at the

NOTE: Use the new inlet hoses provided; never use old hoses.

WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within 42 in. (107 cm)
of your washer’s water inlet. The faucets MUST be 3/4” (1.9 cm)
garden hose-type so inlet hoses can be connected. Water pressure
MUST be between 10 and 120 pounds per square inch. Your water
department can advise you of your water pressure.
NOTE: A water softener is recommended to reduce buildup of scale
inside the steam generator if the home water supply is very hard.

Cette loi exige que le gouverneur de l'État de la Californie publie une liste des substances connues pouvant
entraîner le cancer, des anomalies congénitales ou d'autres problèmes liés au système reproducteur et exige que
les entreprises préviennent les clients des dangers possibles qu’entraîne une exposition à de telles substances. Les
appareils à gaz peuvent causer une exposition minime à quatre de ces substances (le benzène, le monoxyde de
carbone, le formaldéhyde et la suie), qui sont principalement engendrées par la combustion incomplète du gaz
naturel ou du GPL. L'ajustement adéquat des sécheuses peut réduire la combustion incomplète. L'exposition à ces
substances peut être réduite par la ventilation adéquate de la sécheuse vers l'extérieur.
