The Warning status is an indication that the generator currently requires attention, however, this attention will not prevent the generator from running in the event of a power outage. Addition information about the active warning can be accessed through the datils page of Mobile LInk and while the issue should be investigated and addressed as soon as possible, the generator should still be able to perform in a power outage as expected.
Note: Unaddressed Warning statuses can lead to a Faulted status, which will prevent the generator from operating in the event of a power outage. Active Warnings should be investigated by the homeowner or an authorized service dealer as soon as possible.
