equipment and appliances, and to inspect for proper opera-
tion of equipment.

If problems are identified during this inspection, have the
equipment serviced immediately. Note any combustion
equipment not inspected by the technician and consult the
manufacturer's instructions, or contact the manufacturer's
directly for more information about CO safety and the equip-
ment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, or have not
been, operating in a garage attached or adjacent to the resi-
dence.
Never restart the source of a CO problem until it has been
corrected. Never ignore the sound of the alarm!
