l Limit operation requiring maximum poyver (1.6 KVA for the EM1600X;
1.8KVA for the EM1800X and 2.2 KVA for the EM2200X) to 30 minutes. For continuous operation, do not exceed the rated power (1.4 KVA for the EM1600X; 1.5 KVA for the EM1800X and 2.0 KVA for EM2200X).
lDo not exceed the current limit specified for any one receptacle.
l Do not connect the generator to a household circuit. This could cause damage to the generator or to electrical appliances in the house.
NOTE: The EM1600X, 1800X and 2200X generate both AC and DC power. If you use both at the same time, be sure not to exceed the total rated power (1.4 KVA for the EM1600X; 1.5 KVA for the EMl800X and 2.0 KVA for the EM2200X) for AC and DC combined.
Most appliance motors require more than their rated wattage for
