must first be disconnected from the battery to prevent short
circuits.
- Do not start the engine of the vehicle as long as the generator is
connected to the battery. This causes damage to the generator.
• Connect the positive terminal to the positive pole of the battery.
An incorrect connection can seriously damage the generator and
battery.
If the battery liquid comes into contact with the skin,
immediately rinse the skin with running water. Neutralize
with a mild acid, eg lemon juice or vinegar. In case of

Overload protection
The overload protection (25) interrupts the circuit in case of overload
or short circuit of an output. Wait at least 1 minute before operating
the reset switch (18).
Alternating current can be used simultaneously with direct current. If
both are used at the same time, the total power for AC and DC must
not be exceeded: AC: 0.9 kVA, DC: 5 A.
Most engines require more than their nominal power when starting.
Output and overload indicator
During normal operation, the outpur indicator (26) lights up green. If
the generator is overloaded (more than 0.9 kVA). or the connected
device causes a short circuit, the green indicator turns off and the
red overload indicator (25) lights up. Alternating current is switched
off, but the motor continues to run.
Oil alarm system
The oil alarm system is designed to prevent damage to the engine
due to low oil level. The engine is automatically shut down as soon
as the oil level becomes too low.
The oil alarm indicator (24) lights up red.
Check the oil level when the engine stops and does not restart.
