2. 重要な安全情報

Carbon monoxide (CO) is an invisible, odorless, and tasteless gas that can be fatal. It is produced when fuels burn incompletely. Sources can include furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces, gas stoves, and vehicle exhaust. Proper placement and regular testing of your CO alarm are crucial for your safety.

  • CO アラームを決して無視しないでください。 Act immediately if the alarm sounds.
  • Know the symptoms of CO poisoning: headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, confusion, and flu-like symptoms.
  • 適切な換気を確保する for fuel-burning appliances.
  • アラームをペイントしないでください。 Paint can clog the openings and interfere with the sensor.
