Carbon Monoxide Hazards
A generator's exhaust contains toxic carbon monoxide, which you cannot see or
smell. Breathing carbon monoxide can KILL YOU IN MINUTES. To avoid carbon
monoxide poisoning, follow these instructions when operating a generator:
• Only run a generator OUTSIDE, far away from windows, doors, and vents with
engine exhaust directed away from occupied structures.
• Never operate a generator inside a house, garage, basement, crawl space, any
type of vehicle, trailer, or boat, or any enclosed or partly enclosed space.
• Never operate a generator near open doors, windows, vents, or hatches.
• Get fresh air and seek medical attention immediately if you suspect you have
inhaled carbon monoxide.
Early symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure include headache, fatigue,
shortness of breath, nausea, and dizziness. Continued exposure to carbon
monoxide can cause loss of muscular coordination, loss of consciousness, and
then death.
