Eco Throttle® System - Honda EB2200i Owner's Manual

OPERATION
ECO THROTTLE® SYSTEM
With the switch in the ON position, engine speed is automatically lowered when
loads are reduced, turned off, or disconnected. When appliances are turned ON
or reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the electrical
load. In the OFF position, the Eco Throttle® system does not operate.
Appliances with large start-up power demands may not allow the engine to
reach normal operating rpm when they are connected to the generator. Turn
the Eco Throttle switch to the OFF position and connect the appliance to the
generator. If the engine still will not reach normal operating speed, check that
the appliance does not exceed the rated load capacity of the generator.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the Eco Throttle
switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage changes.
The Eco Throttle system is not effective for use with appliances or tools that
require only momentary power. If the tool or appliance will be turned ON and
OFF quickly, the Eco Throttle switch should be in the OFF position.
