OPERATION
PROGRAMMING THE GENERATOR FOR
REMOTE START
NOTICE
The key fob included with the generator should come
already paired with the unit. If it does not you can
follow the directions below to reconnect. If your unit
was shipped without a key fob please contact our
customer support team.
Always make sure the area around
the generator is clear of bystanders
before using the remote start to start
the generator.
The generator can be started remotely from up to a
maximum of 100 feet away using the remote start key
fob with new, fully charged batteries in the key fob. As
the batteries' state of charge in the key fob reduces, the
distance to start the generator will also reduce.
Before the generator can be started, an initial start-up
procedure must be performed so the generator and the
key fob recognize each other. If the key fob is replaced,
you will need to go through this procedure with the new
fob.

on the control panel (or side of control panel) for 3
seconds.

start key fob until the indicator light (see 1 below)

Never use the generator in a location
that is wet or damp. Never expose the

standing water while in use. Protect
the generator from all hazardous
weather conditions. Moisture or ice
can cause a short circuit or other
malfunction in the electrical circuit.
Never operate the generator in an
enclosed area. Engine exhaust
contains carbon monoxide. Only
operate the generator outside and
away from windows, doors and vents.
NOTICE
The engine is equipped with a low oil shutdown
switch. If the oil level becomes low, the engine may
shut down and not start until the oil is filled to the
proper level. Poor oil quality may interfere with the
operation of the low oil shutdown switch.
The owner of the generator is responsible to ensure
the proper oil level is maintained during the operation
of the generator. Failure to maintain the proper oil
level can result in engine damage.
This generator is equipped with an automatic choke
for starting. This system is always on and cannot
be turned off. Do not attempt to make adjustments
to the automatic choke or any other carburetor
adjustments. Tampering with the automatic choke
system may void your warranty. See an authorized
Westinghouse service center for more information.
