GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing carbon

monoxide can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confusion and

eventually death. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that may be

present even if you do not see or smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of carbon

monoxide can collect rapidly, and you can quickly be overcome and unable to save

yourself. Also, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can linger for hours or days in

enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of carbon

monoxide poisoning, leave the area immediately, get fresh air and seek medical

treatment. To prevent serious injury or death from carbon monoxide:

Never run the watercraft in poorly ventilated or partially enclosed areas such as

watercraft houses, seawalls or other boats in close proximity. Even if you try to

ventilate engine exhaust, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach dangerous levels.

Never run the watercraft outdoors where engine exhaust can be drawn into a

building through openings such as windows and doors.

Never stand behind the watercraft while the engine is running. A person

standing behind a running engine may inhale high concentrations of exhaust

fumes. Inhalation of concentrated exhaust fumes that contain carbon monoxide

can result in CO poisoning, serious health problems and death.

Avoid Gasoline Fires and Other Hazards

Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. Fuel vapors can spread and be

ignited by a spark or flame many feet away from the engine.

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, follow these instructions:

Use only an approved red gasoline container to store fuel.
