OPERATION
ECO MODE
See Figure 13.
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 parallel op-
eration 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 13.
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.
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.

USB PORTS
See Figure 13.
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.
PARALLEL OPERATION
See Figure 13.
WARNING
Never connect or disconnect the parallel cord leads
when a generator is running.
CAUTION
right cables is very important when the generators
are used with a transfer switch to supply power to a
building. To avoid serious personal injury or damage
to electrical devices, including the generators, do not
try to power an electrical system in a building without
using an approved transfer switch.
NOTICE
Connecting to a generator that is not
compatible can cause a low voltage output that can
damage tools and appliances powered by the generator.
Parallel operation gives you the ability to link to a compatible
Westinghouse Inverter Generator for combined running and
peak power output.
A parallel cord or receptacle-mounted parallel cable is
needed for parallel operation. Compatible cords are sold
separately.
Refer to the user manual included with your parallel
cord or receptacle-mounted parallel cable for installa-
tion and operation instructions.
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.
