OPERATION
ECO MODE
See Figure 17.
NOTICE
Always start the generator with the
ECO mode switch in the OFF position. Allow the en-
gine speed to stabilize and the OUTPUT READY LED
to illuminate before putting the ECO mode switch in
the ON position.
NOTICE
Do not use ECO mode when in par-
allel operation with another Westinghouse inverter
generator.
ECO mode minimizes fuel consumption and noise by ad-
justing the engine RPM to the minimum required for the
current load.
Turn ECO mode ON when powering small appliances with
continuous loads such as a computer or electric light.
Turn ECO mode OFF when powering large surge loads
such as an air conditioner or electric pump.
To turn on ECO mode, verify that the OUTPUT READY LED
is illuminated, then push the switch to the ON position. If no
load is present, the generator RPM will drop to idle speed.
The generator will detect loads as they are applied and
increase engine RPM.
To run the generator at maximum power and RPM, push
the ECO mode switch to the OFF position.
OVERLOAD RESET
See Figure 17.
Do not overload the generator. If the generator is ap-
proaching or has reached an overload condition, the OVER-
LOAD LED on the control panel will illuminate.
If the generator is close to overloading, the OVERLOAD
LED will blink. Turn off and remove one or more connected
devices to decrease the load and resume normal operation.
If the load is not reduced, the unit will reach an overload
condition. To extend the service life of the generator, avoid
running the unit near capacity.
If the generator is overloaded or if there is a short circuit in
a connected device, the OVERLOAD LED will turn solid,
and the unit will automatically disconnect from the load.
The engine will continue to run, but there will not be any
electrical output.
To restore electrical output after an overload:
l Remove any connected loads from the control panel
receptacles.
22 | English
l Push the RESET button on the control panel until the
OVERLOAD LED goes OFF and the OUTPUT READY
LED is illuminated.
l Reset the circuit breaker(s) if activated.
l Verify that the intended running and surge loads do not
exceed the generator's capacity.
l Reconnect electrical loads sequentially, allowing the
generator to stabilize after each load is connected.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS
See Figure 17.
The 20 amp circuit breaker protects devices and equipment
connected to the 120V, 20 amp receptacles from electrical
overload. The 30 amp circuit breaker protects devices and
equipment connected to the 120V, 30 amp receptacles. If
a circuit breaker activates, turn off the connected device,
remove it from the port or outlet, and press the circuit
breaker to reset.
USB PORTS
See Figure 17.
Use the USB ports and USB cables (not included) to charge
USB-compatible devices such as phones, tablets, and
speakers (up to 2.1 Amps).
NOTE: The USB ports are designed for charging only and
do not have data transfer or communication capabilities.
TRANSPORTING
l Turn off the generator.
l Allow the generator to cool a minimum of 30 minutes
before transporting.
l Replace all protective covers on the generator control
panel.
l Only use the generator's fixed handle to lift the unit or
attach any load restraints such as ropes or tie-down straps.
DO NOT attempt to lift or secure the generator by holding
onto any of its other components.
l Keep the unit level during transport to minimize the pos-
sibility of fuel leakage or, if possible, drain the fuel or run
the engine until the fuel tank is empty before transport.
CAUTION
generator or place it on its side. Fuel or oil can leak
and damage to the generator may occur.
Fire hazard. DO NOT up-end the
