IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
c
The California Safe Drinking
Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause birth
defects or other reproductive harm, and requires
businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens
gives off a very small amount of
carbon
monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure
can be minimized by venting with an open
window or using a ventilation fan
or
hood.

Fluorescent light
bulbs
contain mercury.
If your model has a surface light, you must
recycle the fluorescent light bulb according
to
local,
state and federal codes.
