Setting the Exercise Timer

The generator is equipped with an exercise timer. During the
exercise period, the unit runs for approximately 20 minutes
and then shuts down. Electrical load transfer DOES NOT
occur during the exercise cycle (unless an utility power
outage occurs).
The generator will only enter the exercise cycle if the unit
is in the AUTO mode and this exact procedure is followed.
To set the exercise timer:

cycle setting of Tuesday at 2:00 P.M, Central Time. To change
