RESTARTING THE ENGINE
When the engine is stopped automatically by CO-MINDER, press the CO-
MINDER reset button to restart the engine.
If the engine is restarted without pressing the CO-MINDER reset button, the
engine will automatically stop immediately after restarting and the CO ALARM
indicator will flash for approximately five minutes.
Resetting the CO-MINDER is possible only after the CO ALARM indicator is
turned off.
CO-MINDER MALFUNCTION DETECTION
If the CO-MINDER detects a system malfunction, the engine will stop
automatically and the FAULT/CO SENSOR LIFE indicator will flash for
approximately five minutes. Press the CO-MINDER reset button to turn off the
FAULT/CO SENSOR LIFE indicator. If the engine will not remain running after
attempting to restart it and the FAULT/CO SENSOR LIFE indicator comes on
again, there may be a system malfunction. If this occurs, do not attempt to
restart the generator more than two times. If the CO-MINDER system is
malfunctioning, it cannot warn you of potential high concentrations of carbon
monoxide. Move the generator to a well-ventilated location and consult an
authorized Honda Power Equipment dealer.
CO SENSOR LIFE
If the FAULT/CO SENSOR LIFE indicator flashes when operating the generator,
the CO-MINDER may be reaching the end of its useful lifespan and will
eventually need replacement.
• If the indicator flashes once every four seconds, this means there is
approximately six months to one year of life left in the CO-MINDER.
• If the indicator flashes once every two seconds, this means there is
approximately six months of life or less left in the CO-MINDER.
• The FAULT/CO SENSOR LIFE indicator indicates the estimated life left in the CO-
MINDER.
• The generator stopping period and storage period are also included in the useful
lifespan of the CO-MINDER.
• Contact an authorized Honda Power Equipment dealer for CO-MINDER
replacement.
