senior citizens, and people with cardiovascular or respiratory problems.
Consequently, it is prudent to check the CO monitor regularly for normal operation and to remain
aware of the symptoms of CO poisoning which include dizziness, nausea, vomiting, muscular twitch-
ing, throbbing in the temples, incoherent thinking and speech, weakness, sleepiness, and intense head-
aches.
Should any of these symptoms be experienced in the motorhome, you should IMMEDIATELY evacu-
ate the motorhome and seek medical help. Shut down the motorhome and do not attempt to operate
it again until the source(s) of the CO are located and fixed.
Carbon monoxide gas—derived from products of combustion of diesel fuel, LP gas,
and other petroleum-based products—is a deadly gas which can kill motorhome oc-
cupants, if allowed to accumulate in sufficient concentration. Assure that all engine
operations are not restricted—tailpipes and exhaust ports should not be blocked or
restricted in any way. Additionally, any accumulation of exhaust gases outside or un-
derneath the vehicle should be avoided as such may enter the motor home through
windows or vents—be careful how and where the motor home is parked to avoid such
conditions. Regularly monitor outside conditions to assure that all exhaust gases can
readily be dissipated and not enter the motor home inadvertently.
Never sleep in a motorhome when the engine is running—engine exhaust fumes
could enter the motorhome and cause disability or death. Regularly check the ex-
haust system to note any leakage sites and, if found, discontinue use of the motor
home until they are repaired by a competent, qualified service technician. Do not at-
tempt repairs on the exhaust system yourself and do not modify (temporarily or per-
manently) the exhaust system at all.
