CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Wireless Remote Control
This generator is equipped with a wireless remote
control system for starting and stopping. The system
consists of (4) main components:
1. Receiver Control Module (RCM)
2. Wireless Remote
3. Battery Switch
4. Ignition Switch
The Remote Control functions are enabled when:
1. The Ignition Switch is in the “ON” position, AND
2. The Battery Switch is in the “ON” position.
The Remote Control functions are disabled if either of
the above conditions is not met.
To start the generator by Remote Control, press the
“START” button on the Remote one time. The engine
will attempt to start (6) times. The RCM controls
the Auto Choke during each attempt to start. If the
generator does not start, call Champion Customer Care
team for assistance at 1-877-338-0999.
To stop the generator by Remote Control, press the
“STOP” button on the Remote one time.
Remote Control Power Consumption
While the Ignition Switch is in the “ON” position, the
RCM is active and waiting for a remote signal. This
function requires electrical current from the battery.
If the Ignition Switch is left in the “ON” position for
extended periods (several weeks), the battery can be
completely drained.
Moving the Ignition Switch to the “OFF” position
disables the Remote functions, but the RCM still
consumes approximately 2 mA from the battery.
To prevent battery drain, press the Battery Switch to the
“OFF” position. This disconnects power to the RCM so
there is no current draw on the battery.
Power Panel Load Management
When the generator initially starts by the Remote, no
voltage is supplied to the Power Panel for approximately
15 seconds. This allows the engine to reach full speed
before electrical loads are applied to the generator.
The voltage delay at startup only happens when the
Remote Control is used. There is no voltage delay when
the pushbutton electric start or recoil start method is
used.
When the pushbutton electric start or recoil start
method is used, the operator must be sure all electrical
loads (appliances) are turned OFF during startup and
shutdown. Damage to the generator or the attached
appliances can be caused by starting or stopping the
generator while appliances are plugged in and turned ON.
Power Panel Load Management Cont’d.
