DC Operation
Connecting the Battery Charging Cable
Do not start the vehicle while the battery charging cable is connected and
the generator is running. The vehicle’s charging system or the generator
may be damaged.
Note: The DC receptacle is protected
from an overload with a fuse. If
the DC circuit is overloaded, the 5
amp fuse will blow and power to
the DC receptacle will cease. The
red light on the DC panel will
illuminate. If the DC overload fuse
continues to blow, discontinue
charging and see your authorized
POLARIS generator supplier. The
overload fuse does not prevent
overcharging the battery. The fuse
is located to the left of the
receptacle and is accessed by
snapping open the access door.
Replace the fuse with one of the
same capacity. Using a higher
rated fuse may cause damage to
the generator alternator.
Disconnecting the Battery Charging Cable
1. Stop the generator.
2. Disconnect the black lead of the battery charging cable from the
negative (-) battery terminal and then the lead from the positive (+)
battery terminal.
3. Unplug the battery charging cable from the DC receptacle.
4. Connect the vehicle battery ground cable to the negative (-) battery
terminal.
