5.4 Oil alert system
The oil alert system is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an
insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the crankcase
falls below a safe limit, the oil alert system will automatically shut down the
engine(the engine switch will remain in the ON position).
If the oil alert system shuts down the engine, the oil alert indictor light(red)will
come on when you operate the starter, and the engine will not run. If this occurs,
add engine oil.

5.3 DC application
The DC receptacle may be used for charging 12 volt automotive-type batteries only.
Output voltage is 15-30V, current is 8.3A, when current receptacle on load.
1.Connect the charging cable to the DC receptacle of the generator and then to
the battery terminals.
WARNING
To prevent the possibility of creating spark near the battery, connect charging
cable first to the generator, then to the battery. Disconnect cable first at the
battery.
Before connecting charging cable to a battery that is installed in a vehicle,
disconnect the vehicles grounded battery cable. Reconnect the vehicle's
grounded battery cable after the charging cables are removed. This proce-
dure will prevent the possibility of a short circuit and sparks if you make acci-
dental contact between a battery terminal and the vehicle's frame or body.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to start an automobile engine with the generator still con-
nected to battery. The generator may be damaged.
Connect the positive battery terminal to the positive charging cord. Do not
reverse the charging cables, or serious damage to the generator and/or bat-
tery may occur.
WARNING
The battery gives off explosive gases; keep sparks, flames and cigarettes
away. Provide adequate ventilation when charging.
The battery contains sulfuric acid(electrolyte). Contact with skin or eyes may
cause severe burns. Wear protective clothing and a face shield.
A. If electrolyte gets on your skin, flush with water.
