3. Enstalasyon

Anvan premye itilizasyon an, swiv etap konfigirasyon sa yo:

3.1 Debake

• Retire jeneratè a nan anbalaj li avèk prekosyon.
• Inspect for any shipping damage. Contact your dealer if damage is found.
• Ensure all included accessories (power plugs, spark plug wrench, manual) are present.
