(2) PILOT LAMP and OVERLOAD LAMP

Output lamp

Green light . . . . . Indicates that the generator is generating. Unlit . . . . . . . . . . . The generator is not generating.

Overload Lamp

Red light . . . . . . . Indicates when an overload occurs, or

output is abnormal, generating will stop when the red lamp is displayed.

(The electronics breaker is activated)

NOTE : When the overload lamp is lit, please consult the Trouble- shooting section and disconnect any electrical devices. To reset, turn the engine off and restart it.

(3) OIL SENSOR LAMP

When the level of the engine oil falls below the prescribed value, the alarm lamp lights up and the engine stops automatically. When the engine stops due to oil shortage, it can not be started anymore even by pulling the start knob (just the alarm lamp flickers). In such a case, replenish engine oil up to the mouth of the oil filling port.

(4)AUTO POWER SAVE SWITCH

When the switch is in the " " () position, the engine speed will be automatically decreased when an electrical device is not in use.

Also, when the switch from the electrical device is on, the electrical load is automatically detected, and the engine speed will be adjusted according to this load.

When a large electrical wattage is in use, set the switch to " " ( ) to lower the voltage fluctuation.

When using a direct current (DC) output to charge a battery, turn the switch to " " ( ).

When starting the engine with the switch in the " " () position in the cold weather condition, engine speed will not be at a low speed for the first several minutes during warm up.
