Operating Instructions
UNDERSTANDING YOUR BATTERY
If you are operating the generator through the remote fob and the engine is not
running, the remote switch will blink red to remind you to turn the remote switch off.
Whenever the remote switch is on, it is drawing current from the battery. When the
engine is not running, the battery will not be charged to compensate for the load
from the remote receiver, and over time the battery will be drained below the 10.5V
necessary to start the generator. You must turn off the remote switch when you will not
use the remote fob to start the generator.
If the generator will not start, check the battery voltage with a voltmeter. You can
access the battery through the left maintenance door, or you can simply check the
voltage through the battery charge receptacle on the control panel. This receptacle is
connected directly to the battery, so it can be used without the generator running, or
the key in the ON position, or the remote switch on.
If the battery voltage is below 10.5V, you must
charge the battery by connecting the included
battery trickle charger to the battery charge
receptacle on the control panel ("back-
charging"), or directly to the battery leads.
Allow the battery to charge fully before
attempting to start the generator.
