CHECK CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS

1. Make sure there is a working carbon monoxide (CO) alarm on every level of your home and near sleeping areas.
2. Test CO alarms every month to make sure they are working correctly. Replace and change the Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms according to the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines.

PREVENT CO POISONING

1. In case to warm a vehicle, remove it from the garage immediately after starting it.
2. Do not leave the engine running even if the garage door is open.
3. Generators and grills should be used outside the home, away from windows and doors.
4. On the outside of your home, make sure vents for the dryer, furnace, stove and fireplace are clear of snow and other debris.

IN AN EMERGENCY, LEAVE THE HOME IMMEDIATELY

1. If the CO alarm sounds, immediately leave the home.
2. Call 911/999, etc. or the fire department after you are outside the home. Remain outside until emergency personnel arrive.
