CARBON MONOXIDE (“the silent killer”)
Always use a gas appliance outdoors in an open area with good ventilation to
avoid breathing toxic fumes from combustion or leaking gas. Carbon monoxide
is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas produced by burning gas, wood, propane,
charcoal or other fuel. Carbon monoxide reduces the blood’s ability to carry
oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in headaches, dizziness, weakness,
nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, confusion, loss of consciousness or death. Follow
these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning you, your
family, or others:
• See a doctor if you or others develop cold or flu-like symptoms while
cooking or in the vicinity of the appliance. Carbon monoxide poisoning,
which can easily be mistaken for a cold or flu, is often detected too late.
• Alcohol consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide
poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy,
infants, the elderly, smokers, and people with blood or circulatory system
problems, such as anemia, or heart disease.
