CONTROL & FEATURES

Oil Alert Indicator

The Oil Alert system is designed to prevent engine 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).
The i-Monitor display will show ''OIL'' on the screen and the Oil Alert
indicator illuminates.
If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator comes on when you turn
the engine switch to START or pull the starter grip, check the engine
oil level (see page
Even when oil is added to the engine, the generator will not restart
until the Oil Alert indicator is reset. To reset the Oil Alert indicator, turn
the engine switch OFF, add the proper amount of oil (see page
and then turn the engine switch back ON.
