CARBON MONOXIDE - POISONOUS GAS
Use generator outdoors, away from open windows, vents, or doors.
Keep generator at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any structure or
building during use.
Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide - a poisonous gas
that can kill you. You CAN NOT smell or see this gas.
Never use a generator in enclosed or partially-enclosed spaces.
Generators can produce high levels of carbon monoxide very quickly.
When you use a portable generator, remember that you cannot smell
or see carbon monoxide. Even if you can't smell exhaust fumes, you
may still be exposed to carbon monoxide.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using a generator, get to fresh
air RIGHT AWAY. DO
NOT DELAY. The
carbon monoxide
from generators can
rapidly lead to full
incapacitation and
death.
If you experience
serious symptoms,
get medical attention
immediately. Inform
medical staff that
carbon monoxide
poisoning is suspected. If you experienced symptoms while indoors,
have someone call the fire department to determine when it is safe
to re-enter the building.
NEVER operate the generator in an explosive atmosphere, near
combustible materials or where ventilation is not sufficient to carry
away exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes can cause serious injury or
death.
NEVER use a generator indoors, including in homes, garages,
basements, crawl spaces, and other enclosed or partially-enclosed
areas, even with ventilation. Opening doors and windows or using
fans will not prevent carbon monoxide build-up in the home.
Follow the instructions that come with your generator. Locate the unit
outdoors and away from doors, windows, and vents that could allow
the carbon monoxide gas to come indoors.
ONLY run generator outdoors and away from air intakes.
NEVER run generator inside homes, garages, sheds, or other semi-
enclosed spaces. These spaces can trap poisonous gases EVEN IF
you run a fan or open doors and windows.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the generator, shut
if off and get fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have
carbon monoxide poisoning.
Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon
monoxide alarms with battery back-up in your home, according to the
manufacturer's installation instructions. The carbon monoxide alarms
should be certified to the requirements of the latest safety standards
for carbon monoxide alarms. (UL 2034, IAS 6-96, or CSA 6.19.01).
Test your carbon monoxide alarm frequently and replace dead
batteries.
