To alert you to potentially dangerous levels of carbon monoxide
coming from a generator operating outside or from other sources,
install battery operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon
monoxide alarms with battery back-up on every level of the home and
outside sleeping areas, according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Electric Shock Hazards

• The generator produces enough electric power to cause a serious
shock or electrocution if misused.
• Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as
rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands
are wet, could result in electrocution. Keep the generator dry.
• If the generator is stored outdoors, unprotected from the weather,
check all of the electrical components on the control panel before
each use. Moisture or ice can cause a malfunction or short circuit in
electrical components that could result in electrocution.
• Do not connect to a building's electrical system unless an isolation
switch has been installed by a qualified electrician.
• Use only a Honda approved parallel operation cable kit (optional
equipment) when connecting two EU3000is generators for parallel
operation.
• Never connect different generator models.

Fire and Burn Hazards

• The exhaust system gets hot enough to ignite some materials.
– Keep the generator at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from buildings
and other equipment during operation.
– Do not enclose the generator in any structure.
– Keep flammable materials away from the generator.
• The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for
a while after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler
while it is hot. Let the engine cool before storing the generator
indoors.
