Using a generator indoors WiLL KiLL YOU iN MINUTES.
Carbon Monoxide
Generator exhaust contains high levels of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see
or smell. If you can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But even If you cannot smell
the exhaust, you could be breathing CO.
• NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawlspaces, or other partly enclosed areas. Deadly
levels of carbon monoxide can build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors
does NOT supply enough fresh air.
• ONLY use a generator outdoors and far away from open windows, doors, and vents. These
openings can pull in generator exhaust.
Even when you use a generator correctly, CO may leak into the home. ALWAYS use a
battery-powered or battery-backup CO alarm in the home.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the generator has been running, move to fresh air RIGHT
AWAY. See a doctor. You could have carbon monoxide poisoning.
