Change Fuel Selection
NOTE: Failure to convert both the hardware and
software will result in decreased performance and an
increase in emissions, which is a violation of
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations. It is
the responsibility of the installer to make sure that only
the correct recommended fuel is supplied to the
generator fuel system. Thereafter, the owner/operator
must ensure that only the proper fuel is supplied.
1. Once
fuel regulator is converted to desired fuel
type call 888-9ACTIVATE for the control panel
password. This fuel selection conversion is
required to be password protected by EPA regula-
tions.
2. Access
the control panel located behind the
viewing window at the rear of the unit.

Battery Charger
A 2.5 amp battery charger is integrated into the control
panel module. It operates as a “Smart Charger” which
ensures output charging levels are safe and continuously
optimized to promote maximum battery life.
Battery Safety Precautions
Always recycle batteries in accordance with local laws
and regulations. Contact your local solid waste collection
site or recycling facility to obtain information on local
recycling processes. For more information on battery
recycling, visit the Battery Council International website
at: http://batterycouncil.org
Stationary emergency generators installed with
automatic transfer switches will crank and start
automatically when NORMAL (UTILITY) source
voltage is removed or is below an acceptable
preset level. To prevent automatic startup and
possible injury to personnel, do not connect battery
cables until NORMAL source voltage at the
transfer switch is correct and the system is ready to
be placed into operation.
Storage batteries give off EXPLOSIVE hydrogen
gas. This gas can form an explosive mixture
around the battery for several hours after charging.
The slightest spark can ignite the gas and cause
an explosion. An explosion can shatter the battery
and cause blindness or other injury. Any area that
houses a storage battery must be properly
ventilated. Do not allow smoking, open flame,
sparks, or any spark producing tools or equipment
near the battery.
When working on the battery, always remove
watches, rings, or other metal objects, and only
use tools that have insulated handles. Do not lay
tools or metal parts on top of the battery.
