Throughout this publication, and on tags and decals affixed to the generator, DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE blocks are used to alert you to special instruction about a particular operation that may be hazardous if performed incorrectly or care- lessly. Observe them carefully. Their definitions are as follows:

We also strongly recommend instructing other occupants in the vehicle to properly start and operate the generator. This prepares them if they need to oper- ate the equipment in an emergency.
