STOP the generator immediately if there is a fuel, exhaust or coolant leak and have it
repaired!
CARBON MONOXIDE IS DEADLY! Do not run the generator when
your motor home is indoors or in a confined space. Asphyxiation or carbon
monoxide poisoning hazards exist whenever generator exhaust gasses can
accumulate.
Excessive cranking can overheat and damage the generator starter motor. Do
not crank for more than 20 seconds at a time. Wait at least two minutes before
trying again. If the generator does not start after the third try, refer to the
generator manufacturer's user manual for more information.
NOTE: Refer to the Fuel System section of this manual for detailed
information on fuel gauge operation.
To start the generator manually
1.
A remote start/stop switch is located inside the recreation vehicle. The switch will be
located with an hour meter either on a separate panel, or on the main monitor panel
(location will vary by model). A second start/stop switch is located on the generator.
2.
Press the operation control switch to start the generator. (Depending on how cold it is,
preheat can take up to 15 seconds).
3.
The hour meter will monitor minutes of usage when the generator is running.
4.
Before stopping the generator, turn off air conditioners and large electrical loads and
allow the generator to run 3 to 5 minutes to cool down. Flip the red start/stop switch
to stop.
For top performance and engine life, especially in colder weather, let the generator engine
warm up for two minutes before connecting (turning "on") appliances.
