Does the owner's manual (or anywhere else) state a Prop 65 warning?

I didn't notice a warning - but I didn't look for one. This purchase was to replace an identical machine I bought 7 or 8 years ago. The hose/handle assembly broke and it was cheaper to buy a new machine than repair the broken part - the old one is sitting in the garage, waiting to offer up spare parts, as needed. I didn't pay any attention as to whether there was a manual. Perhaps it is posted online at the Panasonic website?

Yes, you must be right. I don't have the owners manual with me to check up on it at present.

Hi Anthony,The bottle I have doesn't have the prop 65 warning on it. I e-mailed the company that makes sonne's #7 to get you the correct answer to this question. I will have the answer to you tomorrow since their company is closed today. Thank you, Sandy

All the information I've been able to find on Proposition 65 is pretty vague. It it supposed to warn consumers of "chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm" As far as I can tell, there is no thought given to the amount of these chemicals - some of which you can't escape in the manufacturing process. More info can be found here: http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/p65faq.html Although the most helpful line from the faq seems to be: "To request more information regarding the chemical exposures that are the basis of the warning, contact the manufacturer of the product." If I had to guess what chemical warranted the proposition 65 warning, I would guess cadmium.

All nutritional supplements in California contain this warning due to Prop 65. I would not worry about it, because ALL supplements say this.

Prop. 65 is a CA State initiative. It does not necessarily mean it is harmful or carcinogenic. Call the manufacturer for more info. Here is an useful link on this Prop.: http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/p65faq.html

You are asking a legal question. Unless the manufacturer certifies it, which it did not in the data provided. I have no idea who Mr. Bashr is and how he came up with the answer. See also California State Fire Marshal Information Bulletin 13-006 (Updated March 10, 2014) and contact your local fire marshal for determinations, different California fire districts may have additional requirements.http://osfm.fire.ca.gov/strucfireengineer/pdf/bml/List_CSFM_Approved.pdf shows it's approved for California use July 2014- June 2015.

Proposition 65 was passed in California in 1986 and requires the State to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The list includes over 800 chemicals and compounds, including some which occur naturally in the environment and some common substances that are beneficial when used in appropriate doses. In order to comply with California Proposition 65, we print a warning on every invoice being shipped into the state of California. Some of the substances on the Proposition 65 list occur naturally in both the environment and the human body and also exist naturally in many of the foods we eat. Therefore, it can be expected that trace levels of the same chemicals would be detectible in virtually all herbal and natural dietary supplement products. If you would like further information on Proposition 65 please contact The Food and Drug Administration or The Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Outreach and Information Center, maintains a consumer information hotline at the following number: Toll-Free Information Line: (888) 723-3366.

Since there is no penalty for unnecessary Prop 65 warnings, some manufacturers seem to be hedging their bets by slapping it on items that don't appear to fall under the category of environmental health hazards.

The purpose of Proposition 65 is to notify consumers that they are being exposed to chemicals that are known to cause cancer and/or reproductive toxicity. To request more information regarding the chemical exposures that are the basis of the warning, contact the manufacturer of the product.

I believe it is a General Warning and Disclaimer that is required By Law. I am in The HVAC and Electrical trades. About every piece if equipment we install has that Disclaimer in the paperwork some where. Seen the same thing with Auto parts. It is a Legality.

@ Derek ... No no no. This is *NOT* CA (California) compliant. Not a typo.It means it can't be manufactured in California, can't be sold with a house, can't be included as an apartment furnishing, possibly other legal limitations.

Hello Aaron, I just left you a voice message- We only sell BRAND NEW, in box, from the manufacturer. I see you have a LA area code, this model is not allowed in the Southern CA area, due to emissions law. The model for SoCal would be T-K4U-IN - that is the new low emissions model. Give me a call, and I can go over more information with you. There is a possibility that you may be able to purchase the model you have inquired about, but I would need to know the zipcode of the installation to let you know if it is legal. There are some zipcodes outside SoCal, wherein this is still allowed. Give us a ring, 323-228-4639

I emailed NutriCology and they sent me the information on CA Prop 65. This was very helpful in understanding about the naturally occuring lead and other metals. Feel Free to Contact them.

I agree with you.I recently bought a keurig b31 mini and there is no posting on prop 65 on the box. The warning is posted in the manual which can be read after purchase. So now I have the hassel of trying to get a refund. Thw explanation you get from customer service is that the lead does not come in contact with the water. Which sounds like its okay but why do they not state this in the manual too.

Any news or clarification on the Prop 65 warning? How can it be clarified if the manufacturer doesn't know why the warning has been marked on their product? I want to purchase this machine, but hesitate until this issue is cleared up.
