which may release formaldehyde
fumes into the air for an unknown
period of time until total dissipation
occurs. Individuals who are allergic
to formaldehyde gas fumes may
experience irritation to eyes, ears,
nose and throat. Reaction in infants
may be more severe. Although long
range effects are not well understood,
testing to date has not revealed any
serious health effects in humans at the
level of emission from these prod-
ucts.
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases, as they
contain carbon monoxide, which is a
colorless, odorless and poisonous gas.
