Starting - Engine Operation - Carrier VECTOR 6500 Operation & Service Manual

3.1 STARTING - ENGINE OPERATION

Advance microprocessor equipped units may start automatically at any time the Main Power switch
is not in the OFF position. Also, the unit may be fitted with two way communication equipment that
will allow starting of the unit from a remote location even though the switch is in the OFF position.
Be aware of HIGH VOLTAGE supplied at the power plug or from the generator. When performing ser-
vice or maintenance procedures: ensure any two way communication is disabled in accordance with
the manufacturer's instruction, ensure the Main Power Switch is in the OFF position and, whenever
practical, disconnect the high voltage source, lockout/tagout the receptacle and disconnect the neg-
ative battery connection. NEVER dis-assemble the generator: HIGH MAGNETIC FIELD INSIDE! This
field can interfere with cardiac implants such as pacemakers and defibrillators.
Under no circumstances should ether or any other starting aids be used to start engine.
