Carbon Monoxide - Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge Owner's Manual

4. C M
ARBON ONOXIDE
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are
dizziness, ears ringing, headaches, nausea and
unconsciousness. A poisoning victim's skin often
turns cherry red. Because carbon monoxide gas
(CO) is odorless, colorless and tasteless, it is
unlikely to be noticed until a person is overcome.
! DANGER
Fumes from engine, generators, and other equipment
and appliances using burning fuel contain carbon
monxide.
Carbon Monoxide can kill you.
Open all doors, curtains, windows, and hatches to let
fresh air circulate, when running engine, generator
or burning any fuel when boat is anchored, moored
or docked.

be present if:
