ELECTRICAL GENERATOR

–If Equipped
WARNING
Careless handling of the generator and
electrical components can be fatal.
Never touch electrical leads or appliances
when your hands are wet, or when
standing in water or on wet ground.
Do not attempt to repair the generator
yourself. Service should be performed by
an authorized service center.
Do not plug the power cord into the
generator receptacle while the generator
is running.
Automatic Power Transfer Switch
Whenever the generator is needed, an
automatic power transfer system automatically
switches the household electrical system to the
generator 10 seconds after the generator is
started. The ten-second delay allows the
generator to start easily without the burden of
electrical loads.

START position until you hear the generator
running smoothly, then release.
To Stop the Generator

provided in your InfoCase for detailed operating
instructions, troubleshooting and maintenance.

Generator Hourmeter
This meter is located on the monitor panel. It
registers the total number of hours that the
generator has been operated.
Refer to the hourmeter to determine when
periodic maintenance is due and to record
services which have been performed.
Operation Warnings and Cautions
WARNING
The exhaust of all internal combustion
engines contains carbon monoxide (CO).
This poisonous gas is colorless, odorless,
tasteless, and lighter than air. The
exhaust systems of both your motor home
engine and your generator engine have
been installed with your safety in mind.
However, certain precautions must be
taken when using them to protect yourself
from conditions beyond the control of the
manufacturer.
