The CO J = 1-0 absorption line of a damped Ly-alpha absorber at z = 2.04 has been searched toward the QSO PKS 0458 - 02 using the 45-m telescope of Nobeyama Radio Observatory. The upper limits of the optical thickness as 0.024 and 0.014 at velocity resolutions of 2 and 5 km/s, respectively, have been obtained. The upper limit of the column density of CO molecules is 2.1 x 10 exp 15/sq cm for an optical thickness of 0.024 and an excitation temperature of 20 K.
