TheCafifomia SafeDrinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish afist of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potentia! exposure to such substances
Gasappliances 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 burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using aventilation fan or hood

,& WARNING!
SURFACEBURNERS
Useproper pan size-avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped Select cookware having fiat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates Toavoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food properlg Thiswill both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations
of food, since heavy spattering or spit!overs left on range can ignite, Use pans with handles that can
be easily grasped and remain cool
Alwags use the LITE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have ignited,
Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings Boiloverscause smoking
and greasg spillovers that mug catch on fire
Adjust the top burner flame size so it does
not extend begond the edge of the cookware
Excessiveflame is hazardous.,
Use ontg drg pot holders- moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces mag result in burns
from steam Do not let pot holders come near
open flames when lifting cookware Donot use
a towel or other bulky cloth in place of apot
holder.
When using gloss cookware, make sure it
isdesigned for top-of-range cooking,,
To minimize the possibilitg of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back
of the range without extending over adjacent
burners
:;_Carefullg watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting
:::Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats,
' Do not leave ang items on the cooktop The
hot air from the vent mug ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which mug cause them to burst
If a combination of oils or fats wil! be used
in frying, stir together before heating or
as fats melt s!owIg,
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point,
Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep-fat frying Fillingthe
pan too full of fat can cause spitlovers when
food is added
:::::Do not flame foods on the cooktop If gou
do flame foods under the hood, turn the
fan on
Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is
placed over the burner grate to support the
wok This ring acts as u heat trap, which may
damage the burner grate and burner head
Also, it may cause the burner to work
improperlg This mug cause o carbon
monoxide Ievel above that allowed bg current
standards, resulting in o health hazard
':i Foodsfor ffging should be as drg as possible,
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan
• Nevertrg to move a pan of hot fat, especiallg
a deep fat ffger. Wait until the fat iscool
Donot leave plastic items on the cooktop-
they mag melt if left too close to the vent,
