Fuel Safety

DANGER

GASOLINE, GASOLINE VAPORS AND LIQUID

PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) ARE HIGHLY

FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

Unintentional startup can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation or laceration.

Gasoline and Gasoline Vapors (Gas):

– GAS IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE.

– Gas can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.

– Gas is a liquid fuel but it’s vapors can ignite.

– Gas is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.

– Gas has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential leaks quickly.

– In any gas fire, flames should not be extinguished unless by doing so the fuel supply valve can be turned OFF. This is because if a fire is extinguished and a supply of fuel is not turned OFF, then an explosion hazard could be created.

– Gas expands or contracts with ambient temperatures.

Never fill the gas tank to full capacity, as gas needs room to expand if temperatures rise.

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (Propane/LPG):

– LPG (PROPANE) IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND

EXPLOSIVE.

– Flammable gas under pressure can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.

– LPG (propane) is heavier than air and can settle in low places while dissipating.

– LPG (propane) has a distinctive odor added to help detect potential leaks quickly.

– In any petroleum gas fire, flames should not be extinguished unless by doing so the fuel supply valve can be turned OFF. This is because if a fire is extinguished and a supply of fuel is not turned OFF, then an explosion hazard could be created.

– When exchanging LPG cylinders, be sure the cylinder valve is of the same type.

– Always keep the LPG cylinder in an upright position.

– LPG will burn skin if it comes in contact with it.

Keep any and all LPG away from skin at all times.

When adding or removing Gas:

Turn the generator off and let it cool for at least two minutes before removing the fuel cap. Loosen the cap slowly to relieve pressure in the tank.

Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area.

DO NOT pump gas directly into the generator at the gas station. Use an approved container to transfer the fuel to the generator.

DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.

Always keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.

DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.

When starting the generator:

DO NOT attempt to start a damaged generator.

Make certain that the gas cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel lines and exhaust system are properly in place.

Allow spilled fuel to evaporate fully before attempting to start the engine.

Make certain that the generator is resting firmly on level ground.

When operating the generator:

DO NOT move or tip the generator during operation.

DO NOT tip the generator or allow fuel or oil to spill.

When transporting or servicing the generator:

Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the off position and the fuel tank is empty.

Make certain that a LPG cylinder is not attached to generator and is securely stowed away.

Disconnect the spark plug wire.

When storing the generator:

Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.

Do not store generator, gas or LPG cylinder near furnances, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic ignitions.

WARNING

Never use a gas container, LPG connector hose, gas tank, LPG cylinder or any other fuel item that is damaged or appears damaged.

4. Add up to 0.6 L (0.6 qt.) of oil and replace oil fill cap/dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.

5. Check engine oil level daily and add as needed.

NOTE

Once oil has been added, a visual check should show oil about 1-2 threads from running out of the fill hole.

If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in the dipstick while checking.

NOTE

Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.

Degrees Fahrenheitº (Outside)

CAUTION

The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop when the oil level in the crankcase falls below the threshold level.

NOTE

The generator rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated ball bearing that requires no additional lubrication for the life of the bearing.

NOTE

We consider the first 5 hours of run time to be the break-in period for the unit. During the break in period stay at or below 50% of the running watt rating and vary the load occasionally to allow stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the load will also cause engine speed to vary and help seat piston rings. After the 5 hour break-in period, change the oil.

NOTE

Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-in period. Using synthetic oil does not increase the recommended oil change interval.

NOTE

Weather will affect engine oil and engine performance. Change the type of engine oil used based on weather conditions to suit the engine needs.

Add Fuel (Gas)

1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a minimum octane rating of 85 and an ethanol content of less than 10% by volume.

2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.

3. Clean the area around the fuel cap.

4. Remove the fuel cap.

5. Slowly add fuel to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL.

Fuel can expand after filling. A minimum of

1/4 in. (6.4 mm) of space left in the tank is required for fuel expansion, more than 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) is recommended. Fuel can be forced out of the tank as a result of expansion if it is overfilled, and can affect the stable running condition of the product. When filling the tank, it is recommended to leave enough space for the fuel to expand.

6. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.

CAUTION

Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 85.

Do not mix oil and gasoline.

Fill tank to approximately 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) below the top of the tank to allow for fuel expansion.

DO NOT pump gas directly into the generator at the gas station. Use an approved container to transfer the fuel to the generator.

DO NOT fill fuel tank indoors.

DO NOT fill fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.

DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.

DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the fuel tank.

Add Fuel Cont’d.

NOTE

Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blend fuels. When using blended fuels there are some issues worth noting:

– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than gasoline alone.

– These blends can eventually separate, leaving water or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor.

– With gravity-fed fuel supplies, this compromised fuel can be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage to the engine and/or potential hazards.

– There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that are formulated to work with ethanol blend fuels.

– Any damages or hazards caused by using improper fuel, improperly stored fuel, and/ or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not covered by manufacture’s warranty.

It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply, run the engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank when the equipment is not in use for more than 30 days.

WARNING

Pouring fuel too fast through the fuel screen may result in blow back of fuel at the operator while filling.

Connecting LPG Cylinder Cont’d.

CAUTION

Do not allow children to tamper or play with the cylinder or hose connections.

CAUTION

Use approved LPG cylinders equipped with an

OPD (overfilling prevention device) valve. Always keep the cylinder in a vertical position with the valve on top and installed at ground level on a flat surface. Cylinders must not be installed near any heat source and should not be exposed to sun, rain, and dust. When transporting and storing, turn off the cylinder valve and fuel valve, and disconnect the cylinder. Plug the outlet, usually by a plastic protective cap, if one is available. Keep cylinders away from heat and ventilated when in a vehicle.

WARNING

If there is a strong smell of gas: Close off the gas supply at the cylinder. Use soapy water, which will produce a large bubble at the point of any leak, to check the hose, and connections on the cylinder valve and the generator. Do not smoke or light a cigarette, or check for leaks using a match, open flame source or lighter. Contact a qualified technician to inspect and repair the LPG system if a leak is found, before using the generator.

NOTE

– Use only standard 20 or 30 pound capacity LP tanks with Type 1, right hand Acme threads.

– Verify the requalification date on the tank has not expired.

– All new cylinders must be purged of air and moisture prior to filling. Used cylinders that have not been plugged or kept closed must also be purged.

– The purging process should be done by a LPG supplier. (Cylinders from an exchange supplier should have been purged and filled properly already).

– Always position the cylinder so the connection between the valve and the gas inlet won’t cause sharp bends or kinks in the hose.

Grounding

Your generator must be properly connected to an appropriate ground to help prevent electric shock.

WARNING

Failure to properly ground the generator can result in electric shock.

A ground terminal connected to the frame of the generator has been provided on the power panel. For remote grounding, connect of a length of heavy gauge

(12 AWG minimum) copper wire between the generator ground terminal and a copper rod driven into the ground.

We strongly recommend that you consult with a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with local electrical codes.

OPERATION

Generator Location

NEVER operate the generator inside any building, including garages, basements, crawlspaces and sheds, enclosure or compartment, including the generator compartment of a recreational vehicle. Please consult your local authority. In some areas, generators must be registered with the local utility. Generators used at construction sites may be subject to additional rules and regulations. Generators should be on a flat, level surface at all times (even while not in operation). Generators must have at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance from all combustible material. In addition to clearance from all combustible material, generators must also have at least

3 ft. (91.4 cm) of clearance on all sides to allow for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing. Generators should never be started or operated in the back of a

SUV, camper, trailer, in the bed of a truck (regular, flat or otherwise), under staircases/stairwells, next to walls or buildings, or in any other location that will not allow for adequate cooling of the generator and/or the muffler.

DO NOT contain generators during operation. Allow generators to properly cool before transport or storage.

Place the generator in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT place the generator near vents or intakes where exhaust fumes could be drawn into occupied or confined spaces.

Carefully consider wind and air currents when positioning generator.

Failure to follow proper safety precautions may void manufacturer’s warranty.

WARNING

Do not operate or store the generator in rain, snow, or wet weather.

Using a generator or electrical appliance in wet conditions, such as rain or snow, or near a pool or sprinkler system, or when your hands are wet, could result in electrocution.

WARNING

During operation the muffler and exhaust fumes produced will become hot. If adequate cooling and breathing space are not supplied, or if the generator is blocked or contained, temperatures can become extremely heated and may lead to fire.

Grounding

The generator system ground connects the frame to the ground terminals on the power panel.

– The generator (stator winding) is isolated from the frame and from the AC receptacle ground pin.

– Electrical devices that require a grounded receptacle pin connection will not function if the receptacle ground pin is not functional, unless the neutral wire is bonded to the frame.

Starting LPG Cont’d.

NOTE

Observing frost on LPG containers and regulators is common during operation and normally is not an indication of a problem. As LPG vaporizes and travels from the tank to the generator engine it expands. The amount of frost that forms can be affected by the size of the container, the amount of fuel being used, the humidity of the air and other operating conditions. In unusual situations this frost may eventually restrict the flow of gas to the generator resulting in deteriorating performance.

For example, if the tank temperature is reduced to a very low level then the rate at which the LPG vaporizes is also reduced and may not provide sufficient fuel flow to the engine. This is not an indication of a problem with the generator but only a problem with the flow of gas from the LPG container. If generator performance seems to be deteriorating at the same time that ice formation is observed on tank valve, hose or regulator then some actions may be taken to eliminate this symptom.

In these rare situations it can be helpful to reduce or eliminate the cold fuel system effects by doing one of the following:

– Exchanging fuel tanks to allow the first tank to warm up, repeating as necessary

– Placing the LPG container at the end of the generator near the handle, where engine fan air flows out from the generator. This air is slightly heated by flowing over the engine. The container should not be placed in the path of the muffler outlet.

– The container can be temporarily warmed by pouring warm water over the top of the tank.

100264 ENGLISH

OPERATION

Economy Control Switch

The Economy Control switch can be activated in order to minimize fuel consumption and noise while operating the unit during times of reduced electrical output, allowing 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.

WARNING

For periods of high electrical load or momentary fluctuations, the Economy Control Switch should be turned OFF.

12V DC Outlet

The 12V DC outlet can be used with the supplied USB charger and other commercially available 12V DC automotive style plugs. The DC output is unregulated and can damage some products. Confirm your accessory input voltage range is at least 12-24V DC. When using the DC outlet turn the Economy 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.

Connecting Electrical Loads

1. Let the engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes after starting

2. Plug in and turn on the desired 120 Volt AC single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.

– DO NOT connect 3-phase loads to the generator.

– DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to the generator.

– DO NOT overload the generator.

NOTE

Connecting a generator to your electric utility company’s power lines or to another power source may be against the law. In addition this action, if done incorrectly, could damage your generator and appliances and could cause serious injury or even death to you or a utility worker who may be working on nearby power lines. If you plan to run a portable electric generator during an outage, please notify your electric utility company immediately and remember to plug your appliances directly into the generator. Do not plug the generator into any electric outlet in your home. Doing so could create a connection to the utility company power lines. You are responsible for ensuring that your generator’s electricity does not feed back into the electric utility power lines.

If the generator will be connected to a building electrical system, consult your local utility company or a qualified electrician. Connections must isolate generator power from utility power and must comply with all applicable laws and codes.

Parallel Operation

Two (2) Champion model 100264 generators can be operated in parallel to increase the total available electrical power. A Champion parallel kit (optional equipment) is required for parallel operation. For kit availability, call customer service at 1-877-338-0999 or visit www.championpowerequipment.com.

WARNING

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.

Do Not Overload Generator

Capacity

Follow these simple steps to calculate the running and starting watts necessary for your purposes.

1. Select the electrical devices you plan on running at the same time.

2. Total the running watts of these items. This is the amount of power you need to keep your items running.

3. Identify the highest starting wattage of all devices identified in step 1. Add this number to the number calculated in step 2. Surge wattage is the extra burst of power needed to start some electric driven equipment. Following the steps listed under “Power

Management” will guarantee that only one device will be starting at a time.

Power Management

Use the following formula to convert voltage and amperage to watts:

Volts x Amps = Watts

To prolong the life of your generator and attached devices, follow these steps to add electrical load:

1. Start the generator with no electrical load attached.

2. Allow the engine to run for several minutes to stabilize.

3. Plug in and turn on the first item. It is best to attach the item with the largest load first.

4. Allow the engine to stabilize.

5. Plug in and turn on the next item.

6. Allow the engine to stabilize.

7. Repeat steps 5-6 for each additional item.

NOTE

Never exceed the specified capacity when adding loads to the generator.

Stopping the Engine

1. Turn off and unplug all electrical loads. Never start or stop the generator with electrical devices plugged in or turned on.

2. Let the generator run at no-load for several minutes to stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and generator.

3. Turn the Fuel Valve to the “OFF” position if operating by gas.

4. Turn the LPG cylinder knob to the “CLOSE” or off position if operating by LPG.

5. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped the engine. This usually takes a few minutes.

6. Press the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.

7. Turn battery switch to the “Off” Position.

Important: Always ensure that the fuel valve and the ignition switch are in the “OFF” position when the engine is not in use.

NOTE

When turning off the generator after LPG operation, make sure the LPG cylinder knob is in the fully closed position.

NOTE

If the engine will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks or longer, please see the Storage section for proper engine and fuel storage.

NOTE

Always turn the battery switch to the “OFF” position when unit is not in use, this will stop the battery from being drained. Follow the maintenance and storage instructions for the generator and battery when the unit will not be used for a period of 2 weeks or more.

100264 ENGLISH

Operation at High Altitude

The density of air at high altitude is lower than at sea level. Engine power is reduced as the air mass and airfuel ratio decrease. Engine power and generator output will be reduced approximately 3½% for every 1000 feet of elevation above sea level. This is a natural trend and cannot be changed by adjusting the engine. At high altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also result due to the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio.

Other high altitude issues can include hard starting, increased fuel consumption and spark plug fouling.

To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power loss, Champion Power Equipment can provide a high altitude carburetor main jet. The alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained by contacting Customer Support. Installation instructions are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of the

Champion Power Equipment internet site.

The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the application of the high altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the table below.

In order to select the correct high altitude main jet it is necessary to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is stamped on the side of the carburetor. Select the correct main jet part number corresponding to the carburetor code found on your particular carburetor.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Generator battery

This product is equipped with an automatic battery charging circuit. The battery will receive charging voltage when the engine is running. The battery will maintain a proper charge if the unit is used on a regular basis (about once every two weeks). If it is used less frequently, the battery should be connected to a trickle charger (not included) or battery maintainer to keep the battery properly charged. If the battery is not able to start the engine, it can be started by manually pulling the engine recoil cord. If the battery voltage is extremely low, the charging circuit may not be able to re-charge the battery. In this case, the battery must be connected to a standard automotive style battery charger for re-charging before it can be used.

Charge the battery

For a generator equipped with batteries for electric starting, proper battery maintenance and storage should be followed. An automatic battery charger (not included) with automatic charging capability should be used to charge the battery. Maximum charging rate should not exceed 1.5 amps. Follow the instructions included with the battery charger. The battery should be fully charged at least once per month.

NOTE

A Float Charger will maintain the battery condition over long storage periods.

Generator Maintenance

Make certain that the generator is kept clean and stored properly. Only operate the unit on a flat, level surface in a clean, dry operating environment. DO NOT expose the unit to extreme conditions, excessive dust, dirt, moisture or corrosive vapours.

Use a damp cloth to clean exterior surfaces of the generator.

Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt and oil.

Use an air compressor (25 PSI) to clear dirt and debris from the generator.

Inspect all air vents and cooling slots to ensure that they are clean and unobstructed.

CAUTION

DO NOT use a garden hose to clean the generator.

Water can enter the generator through the cooling slots and damage the generator windings.

Disconnect the battery

1. Remove the battery panel cover.

2. Remove the protective cover from the black/negative battery lead.

3. Disconnect the black/negative lead from the black/ negative terminal on the battery and store the cap screw and nut.

4. Repeat steps 1-2 for the red/positive battery lead.

5. Store the battery in a cool, dry place.

100264 ENGLISH

Storage

The generator should be started at least once every 14 days and allowed to run for at least 20 minutes. For longer term storage, please follow these guidelines.

Generator Storage

1. Add a properly formulated fuel stabilizer to the tank.

2. Be sure all appliances are disconnected from the generator.

3. Run the generator for a few minutes so the treated fuel cycles through the fuel system and carburetor.

4. Turn the fuel valve to the “Off” position.

5. Let the generator run until fuel starvation has stopped the engine. This usually takes a few minutes.

6. The generator needs to cool completely before cleaning and storage.

7. Remove the spark plug cap, then pull the recoil grip 3 times to drain the gasoline from the carburetor jets.

8. Change the engine oil.

9. Remove the spark plug and pour about a tablespoon of oil into the cylinder. Crank the engine slowly to distribute the oil and lubricate the cylinder.

10. Reattach the spark plug.

11. Store the unit in a clean, dry place out of direct sunlight.

DANGER

Generator exhaust contains odorless and colorless carbon monoxide gas.

To avoid accidental or unintended ignition of your electric start generator during periods of storage, the following precautions should be followed:

– When storing the generator for short periods of

time make sure that the ignition switch, the fuel valve and the battery switch are set in the OFF position.

– When storing the generator for extended periods

of time make sure that the ignition switch, the fuel valve and the battery switch are set in the the the OFF position and the battery leads have been disconnected from the battery.

(EPA) and/or California Air Resources Board (CARB).

CHAMPION POWER EQUIPMENT, INC. (CPE),

THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AGENCY (U.S. EPA)

AND THE CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD (CARB) EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY

Your Champion Power Equipment (CPE) engine complies with both the U.S. EPA and state of California Air Resources Board

(CARB) Exhaust and Evaporative emissions regulations.

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:

The US EPA, California Air Resources Board, and CPE are pleased to explain the Federal and California Exhaust and Evaporative Emission

Control Systems Warranty on your 2020 small off-road engine (SORE) and engine powered equipment. In California, new equipment that use small off-road engines (SORE) must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti smog standards. In the other states, new engines and equipment must be designed, built and equipped, at the time of sale, to meet U.S. EPA regulations for small offroad engines (SORE). CPE must warrant the exhaust and evaporative emission control system on your small off-road engine (SORE) for the period listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or improper maintenance of your equipment leading to the failure of the exhaust and evaporative emission control systems.

Your evaporative emission control system may include parts such as: carburetors, fuel tanks, fuel lines, (for liquid fuel and fuel vapors), fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps, connectors, and other associated components. Also included for your exhaust emission control system may be fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter and other exhaust emission related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exits, CPE will repair your small off-road engine (SORE) at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:

This exhaust and evaporative emission control system is warranted for two years. If any exhaust and evaporative, emission related part on your engine or equipment is defective in, the part will be repaired or replaced by CPE.

OWNER WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the small off-road engine (SORE) owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s

Manual. CPE recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine (SORE), but CPE cannot deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of receipts.

As the small off-road engine (SORE) owner, you should be aware that CPE may deny you warranty coverage if your small, off-road engine

(SORE) or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to an Authorized CPE distribution center, service center or alternative service outlet as described in (3)(f.) below or CPE dealer or CPE, Santa Fe Springs, Ca. as soon as the problem exists. The warranty repairs shall be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty coverage, you should contact:

EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY

The following are specific provisions relative to your Exhaust and Evaporative Emission Control System (ECS) Warranty

Coverage .

1. APPLICABILITY: This warranty shall apply to 1995 and later model year California small off-road engines (SORE) (for other states,

1997 and later model year engines). The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date the new engine or equipment is delivered to its original, end-use purchaser, and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.

2. GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE

CPE warrants to the original, end-use purchaser of the new engine or equipment and to each subsequent purchaser that each of its small off-road engines (SORE) is:

2a. Designed, built and equipped to conform to U.S. EPA emissions standards for spark-ignited engines at or below 19 kilowatts and all applicable regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board, and

2b. Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a period of two years.

3. THE WARRANTY ON EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSION-RELATED PARTS WILL BE INTERPRETED AS FOLLOWS:

3a. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owners Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for any remainder of the

ECS Warranty Period.

3b. Any warranted, exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the

Owners Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary”, shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

3c. Any warranted, exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below.

Any such exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty, shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.

3d. Repair or replacement of any warranted, exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed at no charge to the owner at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.

3e. The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a part covered by the ECS Warranty is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.

3f. CPE shall pay for covered exhaust and evaporative emissions warranty repairs at non-authorized service outlets under the following circumstances: i. The service is required in a population center with a population over 100,000 according to U.S. Census 2000 without a CPE

Authorized Service Outlet AND ii. The service is required more than 100 miles from a CPE Authorized Service Outlet. The 100 mile limitation does not apply in the following states: Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas, Utah and

Wyoming.

3g. CPE shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a failure under warranty of an emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.

3h. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, CPE shall maintain a supply of warranted exhaust and evaporative emission-related parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such exhaust and evaporative emission-related parts.

3i. Any CPE Authorized and approved exhaust and evaporative emission-related replacement part may be used in the performance of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce CPE’s warranty obligation.

3j. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a CPE engine. Such use voids this ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. CPE shall not be liable hereunder for failures of any warranted parts of a CPE engine caused by the use of such an unapproved add-on or modified part.
