DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY
CARBON MONOXIDE
Carbon monoxide is without color or smell, but can kill you. Breathing carbon
monoxide produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss of muscular control,
a sleepy feeling, and coma. Brain damage or death can result from heavy
exposure. Carbon monoxide occurs in the exhaust fumes of fuel-burning heaters
and internal combustion engines. Carbon monoxide can become dangerously
concentrated under conditions of no ventilation.
Precautions must be followed to ensure operator’s safety when the Space
Heater, Convective is in operation.
• DO NOT operate Heater in an enclosed area without proper ventilation.
• BE ALERT at all times during operating procedures for carbon monoxide
poisoning. If symptoms are present, IMMEDIATELY evacuate personnel
to fresh air.
• BE AWARE the field protection mask used for nuclear-biological-
chemical attack WILL NOT protect you from carbon monoxide
poisoning.
THE BEST DEFENSE AGAINST CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING IS GOOD
VENTILATION.
