Operation

Step 1: Safe Location
Before starting the portable generator there are two
equally important safety concerns regarding carbon
monoxide poisoning and fire that must be addressed.
Operation Location to Reduce the Risk of Carbon
Monoxide Poisoning
WARNING! Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a poisonous gas that could kill you in
minutes. You cannot smell it, see it, or taste it.
Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be
exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
• Operate portable generator only outdoors, at least 6.1
m from occupied spaces with exhaust pointed away to
reduce the risk of carbon monoxide accumulating.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or
plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up
according to the manufacturer's instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
