Oil Alert System
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 system will
automatically stop the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON
position).
If the engine stops and will not restart, check the engine oil level (see
page 43) before troubleshooting in other areas.

Automatic Engine Stop Function

Oil Alert Function

During operation, the engine will automatically stop if there is not
enough oil in the tank. Moreover, if the generator is on a slope, the oil
alert function may operate and stop the engine.

Overspeed Detection Function

To protect the engine from exceeding the engine load, the engine will
automatically stop if the engine speed becomes abnormal.

Abnormal Voltage Detection Function

The engine will automatically stop during generation when it detects
abnormal voltage.
If the engine stops, make sure the oil level is correct. Wait a few
minutes, and then try to restart the engine. If the engine still won't
start, take the generator to your authorized servicing Honda power
equipment dealer.
