2670 Cuddy Console

The carbon monoxide detector warns the occupants of dangerous accumulation of

carbon monoxide gas. It is automatically activated whenever the house battery switch

is in the “on” position, energizing the cabin DC breaker panel. Upon power up, the green

power indicator will flash for ten to fifteen minutes. The feature indicates the unit is

in its warm-up stage. The green power indicator will stop flashing when the sensor has

reached optimum operating temperature. The power indicator will then switch from

flashing green to solid green to indicate that the carbon monoxide detector is activated.

This device uses a micro controller to continuously measure and accumulate CO levels.

Should a very high level of carbon monoxide exist, the alarm will sound within a few

minutes. However, if small quantities of CO are present or high levels are short-lived,

the detector will accumulate the information and determine when an alarm level has been

reached.

Always make sure the battery switch is “on” and the power light on the carbon monoxide detector is lit

whenever the cabin is occupied.

While a CO detector enhances your protection from CO poisoning, it does not guarantee it will not occur. Do

not use the carbon monoxide detector as a replacement for ordinary precautions or periodic inspections of

equipment. Never rely on alarm systems to save your life, common sense is still prudent and necessary.

Remember, the operator of the boat carries the ultimate responsibility to make sure the boat is properly

ventilated and the passengers are not exposed to dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. You should always

be alert to the symptoms and early warning signs of carbon monoxide.

CO DETECTORS ARE VERY RELIABLE AND RARELY SOUND FALSE ALARMS. IF THE

ALARM SOUNDS, ALWAYS ASSUME THE HAZARD IS REAL AND MOVE PERSONS WHO

HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO CARBON MONOXIDE INTO FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY.

NEVER DISABLE THE CO DETECTOR BECAUSE YOU THINK THE ALARM MAY BE

FALSE.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Carbon monoxide (CO), a by-product of combustion, is invisible, tasteless, odorless and is produced by all

engines and most heating and cooking appliances. It exists wherever fuels are burned to generate power or

heat. The most common sources of CO on boats are gasoline engines and auxiliary generators and propane

or butane stoves. These produce large amounts of CO and should never be operated while sleeping. High

concentrations of CO can be fatal within minutes. Many cases of carbon monoxide poisoning indicate that

while victims are aware they are not well, they become so disoriented they are unable to save themselves by

either exiting the area or calling for help. Also, young children, elderly persons and pets may be the first

affected. Drug or alcohol use increases the effect of CO exposure. Individuals with cardiac or respiratory

conditions are very susceptible to the dangers of carbon monoxide. CO poisoning is especially dangerous

during sleep when victims are unaware of any side effects.

Low levels of carbon monoxide over an extended period of time can be just as lethal as high doses over a short

period. Therefore, low levels of carbon monoxide can cause the alarm to sound before the occupants of the

boat notice any symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. CO detectors are very reliable and rarely sound

false alarms. If the alarm sounds, always assume the hazard is real and move persons who have been exposed

to carbon monoxide into fresh air immediately. Never disable the CO detector because you think the alarm

may be false. Always contact the detector manufacturer, the Pursuit Customer Relations Department or your

local fire department for assistance in finding and correcting the situation.
