DuroMax CO Alert Carbon Monoxide Automatic Shutdown
This generator comes equipped with CO Alert, a carbon monoxide sensor that shuts down the generator when it detects Carbon Monoxide.
The XP5500HX Generator is for outdoor use only, positioned away from homes and other buildings, with the exhaust pointed away from any persons or buildings.
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is an odorless, invisible gas produced by internal combustion engines and any device that burns a fuel to produce heat or energy. The CO Alert shutdown feature adds an extra measure of safety to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning caused by misuse.
The DuroMax 5500 Watt Owner Manual explicitly states that the generator is only for use outdoors. Keep the generator at least 20-feet away from any windows, doors, vents, or other openings with the exhaust pointed away from buildings and preferably downwind.
According to the DuroMax Owner Manual and Website, this generator May NOT run indoors. All homes should have a working, up to date, carbon monoxide detector on each level of the home.
Read the Owner Manual Before Use. Follow all safety precautions and warnings in the owner manual and on the decals posted on the generator.
