Carbon Monoxide Detector
A carbon monoxide (CO) detector/alarm is in-
stalled on the starboard aft cabin wall. The detec-
tor is always activated when the house batteries
are connected and is protected by a fuse in the
continuos power fuse panel. If excess carbon
monoxide fumes are detected, an audible beep-
ing will sound indicating the presence of the toxic
gas. A green light on the detector indicates that
it is activated. Always make sure the green light
is on whenever the cabin is occupied.
A by-product of combustion, carbon monoxide is
invisible, tasteless, odorless and is produced by all
engines and some heating and cooking appliances.
The most common sources of CO on boats are
the engines, auxiliary generators and propane or
butane stoves. These produce large amounts of
CO and should never be operated while sleeping.
You should read the owner’s manual supplied
by the detector manufacturer for operation in-
structions and additional information regarding
the hazards of carbon monoxide gas. Also read
more about carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide
detectors and proper ventilation in the Ventilation
System and Safety Equipment chapters in this
manual. This is especially essential since your
boat is equipped with a generator as standard
equipment. If you did not receive a manual for
your carbon monoxide detector, please contact the
Everglades Customer Service Department.
ACTIVATION OF THE CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR
INDICATES THE PRESENCE OF CARBON MONOXIDE (CO)
WHICH CAN BE FATAL. EVACUATE THE CABIN IMMEDIATELY.
DO A HEAD COUNT TO CHECK THAT ALL PERSONS ARE
ACCOUNTED FOR. DO NOT REENTER THE CABIN UNTIL
IT HAS BEEN AIRED OUT AND THE PROBLEM FOUND AND
CORRECTED.
