Carbon Monoxide Hazards - Honda EU70is Owner's Manual

Carbon Monoxide Hazards

A generator's exhaust contains toxic carbon monoxide, which you
cannot see or smell. Breathing carbon monoxide can KILL YOU IN
MINUTES. To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, follow these
instructions when operating a generator:
• Only run a generator OUTSIDE, far away from windows, doors, and
vents.
• Never operate a generator inside a house, garage, basement, crawl
space, or any enclosed or partially enclosed space.
• Never operate a generator near open doors or windows.
• Get fresh air and seek medical attention immediately if you suspect
you have inhaled carbon monoxide.
Early symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure include headache,
fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, and dizziness. Continued
exposure to carbon monoxide can cause loss of muscular coordination,
loss of consciousness, and then death.
