PROGRAMMING THE GENERATOR FOR
REMOTE START
NOTICE
The key fob included with the generator should come already paired
with the unit. If it does not you can follow the directions below to
reconnect. If your unit was shipped without a key fob please contact
our customer support team.
The generator can be started remotely from up to a maximum
of 109 yards (100 M) away using the remote start key fob with
new, fully charged batteries in the key fob. As the batteries’
state of charge in the key fob reduces, the distance to start
the generator will also reduce.
If the key fob is replaced or needs to be reconnected, you will
need to go through this procedure with the new fob.
1. Turn the battery switch to the ON position.
2. Press and hold the electric start button on the control
panel of the generator for 10s, then let go, and the start
indicator light will ash green.

STOPPING THE INVERTER
Normal Operation
During normal operation, use the following steps to stop your
inverter:
1. Remove any connected loads from the control panel
receptacles.
2. Allow the inverter to run at “no load” to reduce and stabi-
lize engine and alternator temperatures.
3. Move the Fuel Control Switch to the OFF position, press
“Stop” on remote start key fob, or press the push button
start once (see Figure 11).

During an Emergency
If there is an emergency and the inverter must be stopped
quickly, move the Fuel Control Switch to the OFF position
immediately.
USING EFFICIENCY MODE
The inverter is equipped with an eciency mode switch to
minimize fuel consumption. In eciency mode, the inverter
will sense the load and adjust the engine RPM to the current
load requirements. Eciency mode should be used only after
the inverter has been warmed up to operating temperature.
1. To turn on the eciency mode, press the switch to the
ON position).
2. If no load is present, the inverter RPM will drop down to
an idle speed.
3. As a load is applied, the inverter will sense the load and
engine RPM will increase according to the load applied.
4. To run the inverter at maximum power and RPM, press
the eciency mode switch to the OFF position.
RESETTING THE RESET BREAKER
The inverter will trip the breaker and automatically disconnect
from the load when the controls sense a predetermined
overload condition. The inverter engine will continue to run, but
there will not be any electrical output.
1. Turn o all devices and unplug them from the inverter.
2. Determine the wattage required from the devices being
powered by the inverter. Make sure the wattage required
does not exceed the maximum output of the inverter.
3. Press in the reset breaker to reset it.
4. Plug the devices in to the inverter.
5. Turn on the devices as needed.
