It blinks.

OIL ALERT
(RED)

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 can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert indicator comes on
and the Oil Alert system automatically stops engine (the engine switch
will remains the ON position).

If the engine stops or the Oil Alert indicator comes on when you turn
the engine switch to START or pull the starter grip, check the engine
oil level (see page

) before troubleshooting in other areas.

Even when oil is added to the engine, the generator will not restart
until the Oil Alert indicator is reset. To reset the Oil Alert indicator, turn
the engine switch OFF, add the proper amount of oil (see page

),

and then turn the engine switch back ON.

The i-Monitor display will shows ‘‘OIL’’ on the screen and the Oil
Alert indicator illuminats.
