2. Información de seguridade

AVISO: Operating this equipment can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

• Risco de monóxido de carbono: Generators produce carbon monoxide (CO), a colorless, odorless, poisonous gas. Using a generator indoors PODE MATARVOS EN MINUTOS. CO Shield technology monitors CO accumulation and automatically shuts off the engine if unsafe levels are detected. However, CO Shield is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or for safe operation.
• ALWAYS use outdoors: Operate the generator outdoors only, far away from occupied buildings. Point engine exhaust away from people and buildings. Never operate in an enclosed area, even with ventilation.
• Seguridade eléctrica: Do not operate the generator in wet conditions. Ensure all connections are secure and use appropriate extension cords. The Volt Guard built-in surge protector helps prevent overloads.
• Seguridade de combustible: Gasoline is highly flammable. Store fuel in approved containers and in a well-ventilated area. Do not refuel while the engine is running or hot.
• Superficies quentes: The generator's engine and muffler become very hot during operation and remain hot for a period after shutdown. Avoid contact to prevent burns.
