Engine power is subject to and limited by such factors as fuel joules/BTU, ambient temperature and altitude. Engine power decreases about 3.5% for
each 304.8 m (1000 ft) above sea level, and also will decrease about 1% for each 6 °C (10 °F) above 15 °C (60 °F) ambient temperature.
A detailed specification sheet for your particular generator set is available from your local Independent Authorized
Service Dealer (IASD) or at www.generac.com.

The control panel contains a display which alerts the
operator when a fault condition occurs. The above list is
not all inclusive. See
about alarms and control panel operation.
NOTE: A warning will indicate a condition on the
generator set which should be addressed, but will not
shut the generator set down. An alarm will shut the
generator set down to protect the system from any
damage. In the event of an alarm, an owner can clear the
alarm and restart the generator set prior to contacting an
IASD. If the intermittent issue occurs again, contact an
IASD.
