Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
When adding or removing fuel:
Turn the engine off and let it cool for at least two
minutes before removing the fuel cap. Loosen the
cap slowly to relieve pressure in the tank. Only fill
or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always keep fuel away from sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
When starting the pressure washer:

Wireless Remote Control
This generator is equipped with a wireless remote
control system for starting and stopping. The system
consists of (4) main components:
1. Receiver Control Module (RCM)
2. Wireless Remote
3. Battery Switch
4. Ignition Switch
The Remote Control functions are enabled when:
1. The Ignition Switch is in the “ON” position, AND
2. The Battery Switch is in the “ON” position.
The Remote Control functions are disabled if either of
the above conditions is not met.
To start the generator by Remote Control, press the
“START” button on the Remote one time. The engine
will attempt to start (6) times. The RCM controls
the Auto Choke during each attempt to start. If the
generator does not start, call Champion Customer Care
team for assistance at 1-877-338-0999.
To stop the generator by Remote Control, press the
“STOP” button on the Remote one time.
CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Remote Control Power Consumption
While the Ignition Switch is in the “ON: position, the
RCM is active and waiting for a remote signal. This
function requires electrical current from the battery.
If the Ignition Switch is left in the “ON” position for
extended periods (several weeks), the battery can be
completely drained.
Moving the Ignition Switch to the “OFF” position
disables the Remote functions, but the RCM still
consumes approximately 2 mA from the battery.
To prevent battery drain, press the Battery Switch to the
“OFF” position. This disconnects power to the RCM so
there is no current draw on the battery.
