Starting up the 230 V
alternator system*
The 230 V alternator system* is switched
on by pressing the green button* with the
engine running.
To be switched on the alternator requires a
speed of 2,700 rpm, which corresponds to
an engine speed of 850 rpm.
The maximum current draw of 16 A 1)
(equivalent to 3.5 kVA) is possible at an engine
speed of 1,700 rpm. At engine idling
speed approx. 4 A 1) (equivalent to 0.9 kVA)
is available.
The green indicator lamp 1 in the switch*
lights up when the system is ready for
operation.

During operation
After the 230 V alternator system* is
switched on you can connect your 230 V
devices.
Should the power draw be too high for the
current engine speed, then the red indicator
lamp in the On/Off switch* lights up and the
system is switched off.
In this operating state you can now either
increase the engine speed to remove more
power, or you must switch off a few consumers
to limit the power draw. Then the
230 V alternator system must be restarted.
Should no power be available during operation
and the red indicator lamp 2 in the On/
Off switch* lights up, then there is a fault in
the 230 V power system or in the 230 V
alternator system*.
In this case, see the chapter Self-Help from
page 30.
