WARNING
DANGER
IMPORTANT SAfETY INSTRUCTIONS
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, poisonous
gas. Breathing carbon monoxide will cause nausea, dizziness,
fainting or death.
Generator must be installed and operated outdoors only.
NEVER allow exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through
windows, doors, air intake vents or other openings of the
building
ALWAYS avoid breathing exhaust fumes when near an
operating generator.
NEVER alter the generator or modify the exhaust system
thereby creating noncompliance with Federal and State
emissions regulations, local applicable codes, standards and
laws.
NEVER allow blockage of the engine's air intake cooling
ventilation system. Doing so can seriously affect performance
and safe operation of the generator.
Always install a battery-operated carbon monoxide (CO)
detector on each level of any building adjacent to the generator
location following the manufacturer's CO detector installation
instructions.
In many U.S. States it is required by law to have a Carbon
Monoxide (CO) detector in an occupied home or dwelling. It is
strongly recommended that a Carbon Monoxide (CO) detector
be installed on each level of any private dwelling or building in
operating condition.
A Carbon Monoxide (CO) detector is a device that detects elevated
hazardous levels of poisonous CO and will alert the occupants by
flashing a visual light indicator and an audible alarm.
Do not use generator for medical life support uses.
In case of emergency, call 911 immediately.
NEVER use this product to power life support devices or life
support appliances.
Inform your electricity provider immediately if you or anyone in
your household depends on electrical equipment to live.
Inform your electrical provider immediately if a loss of power
would cause you or anyone in your household to experience a
medical emergency.
