California Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING: This product contains chemicals (lead) known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth defects or reproductive harm.
This kit includes a special low-temperature ultra-fine leaded solder wire.
Including the solder with the kit ensures that you will have solder that can be
used to mount the surface-mount parts in the kit. Leaded solders have been used
for over a century in electronic assembly, but you should take the following
precautions when using it (or just about any chemical, for that matter):
• Do not eat or drink while using it
• Wash your hands after handling it
• Keep it in the protective bag when you're not using it

The European Union RoHS (Restriction on Hazardous Substances) regulations
exempt kits such as the Quark from its regulations, because they are not for resale
and since it is well known that hand soldering with non-leaded solder is much
more difficult and more damaging to heat-sensitive components.
