Electric Shock Hazards
Fire and Burn Hazards
The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious
shock or electrocutionif misused.
Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as
rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands
are wet, could result inelectrocution. Keep the generator dry.
Do not connect to a building electrical system unless an isolation
switch has been installed by a qualified electrician.
Use only a Honda approved parallel operation cables kit (optional
equipment) when connecting two EU1000i generators for parallel
operation.
Never connect different generator models and types.
The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite somematerials.
Keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from buildings
and other equipment duringoperation.
Do not enclose the generatorin any structure.
Keep flammable materialsaway from the generator.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for
a while after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler
while it is hot. Let the engine cool before storing the generator
indoors.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain
conditions. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks where the
generator is refueled or where gasoline is stored. Refuel in a well-
ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Fuel vapors are extremely flammable and may ignite after the
engine has started. Make sure that any spilled fuel has been wiped
up before starting the generator.
If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather,
check all of the electrical components on the control panel before
each use. Moisture or ice can cause a malfunction or short circuit in
electrical components which could resultin electrocution.
