Accumulation of Carbon Monoxide Examples
Carbon Monoxide Monitor
The CO monitor is an electronic instrument that detects carbon monoxide. The detector is very
sensitive and will notify you before dangerous amounts of CO can accumulate which will allow you to
take measures to dissipate the gas from the affected areas. When there is a buildup of CO in the
cabin, the monitor will alert the occupants by flashing a DANGER light and sounding an alarm. The CO
monitor is powered through a breaker on the battery panel in the cockpit.
It is important that you read and understand the CO monitor information and operating instructions.
It is extremely important that you become familiar with the CO monitor and its functions.
Testing the CO Monitor
Test the monitor on your boat at manufacturers required intervals by pushing the TEST button on the
side of the unit. If the unit is operating correctly both audible and visual warning indicators will be
activated.
