WARNINGWARNING
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous gas that is color-
less, odorless and tasteless. Many cases of reported carbon
monoxide poisoning indicate, that while victims are aware
they are not feeling well, they become so disoriented they
are unable to save themselves by either exiting the vehicle or
calling for assistance. Due to their physical size, young chil-
dren and household pets may be the rst to show symptoms
of carbon monoxide poisoning.
e risk of carbon monoxide poisoning or suocation
exists in any conned space. Do not allow children or pets
to play or become entrapped within the storage compart-
ments of your motorhome.
