Important Safety Notice and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Waler and Toxic Enforce-
ment Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor
of California to publish a list of substances known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm,
and requires businesses to warn customers of potential ex-
posures to such substances.

primarily to the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
liquid petroleum (LP) fuels. Properly adjusted burners will
minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these sub-
