Section 1 • Safety

To minimize the danger of CO accumulation when the engine is running or using fuel burning appliances:

Be sure to have sufficient ventilation when using canvas or window-type side curtains when underway, anchored, moored, or docked.

If a convertible or camper top is installed, operate with the forward hatch open and leave cabin door open.

Operate all fuel burning appliances, such as charcoal, propane, LPG, CNG, or alcohol cooking devices in areas where fresh air can circulate. Do not use such devices where there is no noticeable air movement, especially in the cabin, when anchored, moored, or docked.
