Dielectric grease should be used on battery posts to aid in the
prevention of corrosion.
Damage will result if battery connections are made in reverse.
In areas where temperatures regularly fall below 32° F (0° C) it
is recommended that a pad type battery heater be installed to
aid in cold climate starting.

1.15 BATTERY CHARGER
The battery charger is integrated into the control module in all
models.
It operates as a "Smart Charger" which ensures output is continu-
ally optimized to promote maximum battery life and charging levels
are at safe conditions.
There is a warning on the LCD display when the battery needs
service.

Post Installation Start-up and Adjustments
2.1
ACTIVATE THE GENERATOR
When battery power is applied to the generator during the installa-
tion process, the controller will light up. However, the generator still
needs to be activated before it will automatically run in the event of
a power outage (see Activation Chart).
Activating the generator is a simple one time process that is guided
by the controller screen prompts. Once the product is activated,
the controller screen will not prompt you again, even if you discon-
nect the generator battery.
After obtaining your activation code, please complete the following
steps at the generator's control panel in the Activation Chart.
2.2
BEFORE INITIAL START-UP
These units have been run and tested at the factory prior to
being shipped and do not require any type of break-in.
This unit comes filled with oil from the factory. Check the oil
level and add the appropriate amount if necessary. See the
maintenance section for appropriate oil for your location.
Before starting, complete the following:
1.
Set the generator's main circuit breaker to its OFF (or OPEN)
position.
2.
Set the generator's AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the OFF
position.
3.
Turn OFF all breakers on the load center of the transfer box (T1
and T2).
4.
Turn OFF all loads connected to the transfer switch terminals
T1 and T2.
5.
Check the engine crankcase oil level and, if necessary, fill to
the dipstick FULL mark with the recommended oil. Do not fill
above the FULL mark.
6.
Check the fuel supply. Gaseous fuel lines must have been
properly purged and leak tested in accordance with applicable
fuel-gas codes. All fuel shutoff valves in the fuel supply lines
must be open.
During initial start up only, the generator may exceed the normal
number of start attempts and experience an "over crank" fault (See
the "Overcrank" section). This is due to accumulated air in the fuel
system during installation. Reset the control board and restart up
to two more times, if necessary. If unit fails to start, contact the
local dealer for assistance.
Never operate the engine with the oil level
below the "Add" mark on the dipstick. Doing
this could damage the engine.
