Generator Placement
WARNING Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an
odorless, colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide could result in death, serious
injury, headache, fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion,
seizures, nausea or fainting.
Operate this product ONLY outdoors in an area that will not
accumulate deadly exhaust gas.
Keep exhaust gas away from any windows, doors, ventilation
intakes, soffit vents, crawl spaces, open garage doors or other
openings that can allow exhaust gas to enter inside or be drawn
into a potentially occupied building or structure.
Carbon monoxide detector(s) MUST be installed and maintained
indoors according to the manufacturer’s instructions/
recommendations. Smoke alarms cannot detect carbon
monoxide gas.
