OPERATION
3. Plug in the appliance.
Most motorized appliances
require more than their rated
wattage for startup.
4. Turn on the appliance.
If the generator is overloaded, or if there is a short circuit in a
connected appliance, or if the inverter is overheated, the red
OVERLOAD indicator will come ON. The red OVERLOAD indicator will
stay ON and, after about five seconds, current to the connected
appliance(s) will shut off, and the green OUTPUT indicator will go
OFF. Stop the engine and investigate the problem.
Determine if the cause is a short circuit in a connected appliance, an
overload, or an overheated inverter. Correct the problem and restart the
generator.
Before connecting an appliance to the generator, make sure that it is
in good order and that its electrical rating does not exceed that of the
generator. Then start the generator and connect the appliance power
cord.
When an electric motor is started, the red OVERLOAD indicator may
come on. This is normal if the red OVERLOAD indicator goes OFF after
about five seconds. If the red OVERLOAD indicator stays ON, consult
an authorized Honda generator dealer.
