SOME NOTES ABOUT POWER CORDS

Long or thin cords can require more wattage from a generator to power an electrical device. Figure 9 shows the recommended cords according to the power requirement of the electrical device. When using cords that exceed these specifications, allow for the electrical device to have a slightly higher rated wattage requirement.

DC Usage

The DC outlet is only for recharging 12 Volt automotive-type batteries. Do not connect any other device to this outlet.

Use this generator only for recharging 12 Volt batteries. NEVER attempt to jumpstart a car with this generator.

Failing to use the correct procedure can cause a battery to explode, seriously injuring anyone nearby. Keep heat, sparks, flame and smoking materials away from the battery.
