Check oil: This message will actually begin flashing at 99 hours and disable itself at
102 hours, providing a three hour window to perform the service.
Maintenance: After 100 hours cumulative running time, every 100 hours the "SVC"
icon on the lower right hand corner of the display will flash. The message will flash
one hour before and two hours after each 100 hours interval providing a three hour
window to perform service.
Note:
The hour glass graphic will flash on and off when the engine is running. This
signifies that the meter is tracking hours of operation.
Never operate in an enclosed area or indoors! NEVER use in the home, in a
vehicle, or in partly enclosed areas such as garages, EVEN IF doors and
windows are open! ONLY use outdoors and far from open windows, doors,
vents, and in an area that will not accumulate deadly exhaust.
The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which you cannot see
or smell. This poisonous gas, if breathed in sufficient concentrations, can
cause unconsciousness or even death.
Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ventilating air is critical to
correct generator operation. Do not alter the installation or permit even
partial blockage of ventilation provisions, as this can seriously affect safe
operation of the generator. The generator MUST be operated outdoors.
The exhaust system must be properly maintained. Do nothing that might
render the exhaust system unsafe or in noncompliance with any local
codes and/or standards.
Always use a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm indoors, installed
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
