AC sockets
When plugging an appliance or an extension cord to the
AC sockets (7) of the generator, the following aspects
must be observed:
▪ The appliances and extensions cords are in good
condition. Defective appliances and extension cords
can cause electric shocks;
▪ If an appliance begins to operate abnormally, slows
down or stops suddenly, switch it off immediately;
▪ The devices power must not exceed the generator
output power. Never exceed the maximum power of
the generator. Do not use the generator at its
maximum power for a period of more than half an
hour.
Exceeding the time limit at full load will slowly
overload the generator and although it will not
trip the circuit breaker, it will shorten the useful life of
the generator.
To connect the appliances to the generator, proceed as
follows:
1. Set the AC sockets circuit breaker (6) to "ON" position
and check the voltage value on the voltmeter (5), it
should show 230V ±5% (50Hz). Only then can you
plug in the apparatus;
2. Connect the appliances to the AC sockets;
3. Do not plug in the appliances simultaneously, plug in
one at a time, the ones with the highest power first.
Never plug electronic devices directly into AC
sockets. You must use a voltage automatic
regulator - AVR.
AC sockets circuit breaker
The AC sockets circuit braker (6) will trip automatically
in the event of a short circuit or significant overload of
the generator.
If the AC circuit breaker trips automatically, check that
the devices are connected correctly, the power cords
are not damaged and devices power is not greater than
the power of the generator before restarting the
generator.

12 V DC terminals
The DC terminals (10) must only be used to charge 12 V
car batteries.
If the battery is installed in the car or other equipment,
before connecting the cables between the DC terminals
and the battery terminals, disconnect the earth cable
from the (-) battery terminal;
The DC terminals of the generator are red and black to
identify positive (+) and negative pole (-) respectively.
To charge a battery, connect the positive (+) battery
terminal to the red terminal of the generator and the
negative (-) battery terminal to the black terminal of the
generator.
If the cables are connected the wrong way round, the
12 V DC thermal circuit breaker (9) will trip. Connect the
cables correctly, press the circuit breaker push-button
(9) so that the battery can be charged.
When the DC circuit is overloaded, or there is a
problem, with the battery or the connections between
the battery and the generator are incorrect, the DC
circuit breaker will trip. If this happens, wait a few
minutes before pressing the circuit breaker button to
reset the circuit. If the circuit breaker continues to trip,
remove the battery and consult technical assistance.
To disconnect the cables, first loosen the cables from
the generator terminals to prevent the other end from
coming into contact and sparking.
Batteries are highly explosive, keep them away
from sparks, flames, cigarettes and sources of
ignition and only charge in a well-ventilated area.
Do not start the vehicle while the jumper cables
are connected and the generator is running,
otherwise you may damage the vehicle and the
generator.
