DANGER! Prolonged or high exposure to CO may result
in vomiting, confusion, and collapse in addition to loss
of consciousness and muscle weakness. If such
symptoms occur, call 911 for emergency medical
attention. If you have experienced these symptoms, do
not operate this machine or any other propane machine
again until cleared by a physician. Excessive exposure
to CO can result in death.
