The Eco Mode button can be activated to turn on economy control
in order to minimize fuel consumption and noise while operating
the unit during times of reduced electrical output. Eco Mode
allows the engine speed to idle during periods of non-use.
The engine speed returns to normal when an electrical load is
connected. When the economy switch is off, the engine runs at
normal speed continuously.

12V DC Automotive Style Outlet
The 12V DC outlet(s) can be used with supplied accessories and
other commercially available 12V DC automotive style plugs.
The DC output is unregulated and can damage some products.
Confirm the input voltage range of your item is at least 12-24V DC.
When using the DC outlet turn the Eco Mode switch to the “OFF”
position.
WARNING
Do not operate a device while it is plugged in to the 12V DC
outlet.
Prolonged exposure to engine exhaust can cause serious injury
or death.
CAUTION
While charging a device do not place on the exhaust side of the
generator. Extreme heat caused by exhaust can damage the
device, and cause a potential fire hazard.
Battery Charging
1. Before connecting the battery charging cable (included) to a
battery that is installed in a vehicle, disconnect the vehicle
battery ground cable from the negative (–) battery terminal.
2. Plug the battery charging cable into the 12V DC receptacle of
the generator.
3. Connect the red (+) battery charger lead to the red (+) battery

be damaged. Charge only vented wet lead acid batteries.
Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury or
damage.
NOTICE
Be sure all electric devices including the lines and plug
connections are in good condition before connection to the
generator.
Parallel Operation
The Champion model CPG4000DHY-DF-UK is parallel ready and
can be operated in parallel with another Champion unit to increase
the total available electrical power. A Champion model
100319
parallel kit (optional equipment) is required for parallel operation.
Detailed instructions for parallel kit installation and operation of
the connected generators are provided in the parallel kit operator’s
manual.
