The total wattage of all appliances connected must be considered.

Do not exceed the current limit specified for any one receptacle.

Do not connect the generator to a household circuit. This could cause the damage to the
generator or to electrical appliances in the house.

Do not modify or use the generator for other purpose than it is intended for. Also observe the
following when using the generator.

Do not connect an extension to exhaust pipe.

When an extension cable is required, be sure to use a rubber sheathed flexible cable (IEC
245 or equivalent).

Limit length of extension cables to 195 ft (60 m) for cables of 1.5mm

2

and 325 feet (100 m) for

cables of 2.5mm

2

. Long extension cables will reduce usable power due to resistance in the

extension cable.

Keep the generator away from other electric cables or wires such as commercial power
supply lines.

The DC receptacle can be used while the AC power is in use. If you use both at the same time,
be sure not to exceed the total power for AC and DC.

Most appliance motors require more than their rated wattage for start-up.
