Step-by-step Guide 


1. Open the generator lid. To access the generator's control panel, you must unlock both sides of the lid with your key. 

2. Press OFF. It is best practice to power down the unit before continuing. 

3. The control panel display should read "SWITCHED TO OFF".

4. Press ESC to access the Main Menu.

5. Select SUB MENUS.

Note: Use the arrow keys above and below the enter button to navigate to EDIT; when highlighted, press ENTER to select.

8. Use the arrow keys to scroll through the alarm log history. 

9. To return your unit to automatic stand-by:

 

    1. Press ESC until you navigate back to the main menu.
    2. When the "SYSTEM" main menu option appears in the upper left corner.
    3. Press ENTER, then press AUTO to return to automatic standby mode.


Note: When returned correctly in standby mode, the generator will display "READY TO RUN," and the green LED light on the side of the generator will be on.
