12 Volt DC Fuse (8): 8. The 12 Volt DC Outlet has one Fuse (8) to protect the Gen-
erator from overloading. The Generator is equipped with the following size and type
of Fuse: F10A250V. Should a 12 VDC output exceed the fuse’s rating, always
check to see if the Fuse has “blown” (a melted lament within the Fuse). If neces-
sary, unplug all electrical loads from the Generator, replace with a new Fuse, and
reattach a reduced load to the generator. (See Figure C.)
Power-On Light (10): 9. Indicates voltage is being provided by the Generator.
