OILALERT
(RED)
The Oil Alert system is designed to preventengine damage caused
by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in
the crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert indicator comes
on and the Oil Alert system automatically will stop the engine (the
engine switch will remain in the ON position).
If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator comes on when you turn
the engine switch to START or pull the startergrip, check the engine
oil level (see page ) before troubleshooting in other areas.
Even when oil is added to the engine, the generatorwill not restart
until the Oil Alert indicator is reset. To reset the Oil Alert indicator,
turn the engine switch OFF, add the properamount of oil (see page
), and then turn the engine switch back ON.
The i-Monitor display will show ‘‘OIL’’ on the screen and the Oil
Alert indicator will illuminate.
