Operation
12 Volt DC Receptacle
The maximum current available for the 12 Volt DC
receptacle is 60 Watts (5 Amps). A DC circuit breaker
protects this receptacle from overloads. If an overload
occurs, the circuit breaker will trip (push button pops out).
Wait a few minutes and push the button in to reset the
circuit breaker.
This receptacle along with the USB adapter allows you to
recharge any USB powered device with a USB charging
cable (not included).
NOTICE For charging ITE (Information Technology
Equipment) only.
NOTICE When using this receptacle, push the QPT
switch to the OFF (0) position.
Output Indicator
The green LED output indicator light comes on when
the generator is operating normally. It indicates that the
generator is producing power at the receptacles.
Overload Alarm
The red LED overload alarm light comes on and cuts
power to the receptacles if you overload the generator. The
green output indicator light will also go off. If the generator
was overloaded, you must turn off and unplug all electrical
loads, then push the generator reset button to continue
operating.
Low Oil Indicator
The low oil indicator system is designed to prevent engine
damage caused by not enough engine oil. If the engine
oil level drops below a preset level, the yellow LED low
oil indicator light comes on and an oil switch will stop
the engine. If the engine stops or the yellow LED low oil
indicator light comes on when you pull the recoil handle,
check the engine oil level.
