IMPORTANT SAFETY
NOTICE!
The California Safe Drinking
Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
requires the governor of California
to publish alist of substances
known to the state to cause birth
defects or other reproductive harm
and requires businesses to warn
their customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in a
self-cleaning oven will give off a
very small amount of carbon
monoxide during the cleaning
cycle. Exposure can be minimized
by venting with an open door or
window or using a ventilation fan
or hood.
IMPORTANT: The health of
some birds is extremely sensitive
to the fumes given off during
the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.
