While operating your Generator sys-
tem, always be certain there is ad-
equate ventilation in the cabin areas
of your yacht to avoid the potential
accumulation of Carbon Monoxide
Gas (CO). Carbon Monoxide Gas is
colorless, odorless and tasteless. It is
highly poisonous, endangering lives
even at very low levels of concentra-
tion. Mild exposure causes headaches
and fatigue, often resembling “
fl u-like”
symptoms. Medium exposure causes
severe headaches, drowsiness, nausea
and rapid heart rate. Extreme exposure
results in unconsciousness, convul-
sions, cardiorespiratory failure and
death. If Carbon Monoxide Gas is de-
tected in your yacht, immediately con-
tact a quali
fi ed technician to locate and
repair the source of the poisonous gas.
DO NOT enter your yacht until repairs
have been made and the Carbon Mon-
oxide Gas is lowered to an acceptable
level. Refer to the Carbon Monoxide
Gas (CO) Detector System Section of
this Owner’s Manual for additional in-
formation and cautions concerning this
deadly gas.
