5.2 Air Conditioning Operation (13,500-15,000 BTU)

When using two PH2700PRi models in parallel, bring the generators up to normal operating temperatures before applying the air conditioning load. Always allow a 2 minute wait period when manually cycling an air conditioner off and on. A longer wait period may be required under unusually hot weather conditions. Additionally, all other loads should be turned off until the air conditioner has started and is performing normally. It is also important to follow the air conditioner manufacturer's instructions for starting and restarting for proper operation.
