Overload Alarm (Indicator)
If the generator is overloaded (in excess of 2.2 kVA), or if there is a short
circuit in a connected appliance, the overload indicator (red) will come ON.
The overload indicator (red) will stay ON, and after about four seconds,
current to the connected appliance(s) will shut off, and the output indicator
(green) will go OFF. However, the engine will continue to run.
If the overload indicator blink continuously,it suggests an abnormal of
inverter unit (see page 69).
Oil Alert Indicator
The Oil Alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by
an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in
the crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert indicator (red)
comes ON and the Oil Alert system automatically will stop the engine
(the engine switch will remain in the ON position).
If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator (red) comes ON when you
pull the starter grip, check the engine oil level (see page 53) before
troubleshooting in other areas.
