Eco Throttle System - Honda EU32i Owner's Manual

ECO THROTTLE SYSTEM

Each time you push the Eco Throttle Switch, the system turns on and off.
With the system in the ON, engine speed is automatically lowered when loads
are reduced, turned off, or disconnected. When appliances are turned on or
reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the electrical
load. In the OFF, the Eco Throttle system does not operate.
Appliances with large start-up power demands may not allow the engine to
reach normal operating rpm when they are connected to the generator. Turn
the Eco Throttle system to the OFF and connect the appliance to the generator.
If the engine still will not reach normal operating speed, check that the
appliance does not exceed the rated load capacity of the generator.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the Eco Throttle
system to the OFF to reduce voltage changes.
The Eco Throttle system is not effective for use with appliances or tools that
require only momentary power. If the tool or appliance will be turned ON and
OFF quickly, the Eco Throttle system should be in the OFF.
