Since the generator is powered by a diesel engine, special precautions must be taken for using it in the winter. Use “winter diesel” to operate the diesel generator in outdoor temperatures between -3°C to -10°C. The change to winter diesel takes place at different times depending on the country concerned, it is general around the end of October. You can ask at your filling station when this change should be made. n If you use the diesel generator regularly, you do not need to take any precautions since the change to winter diesel takes place automatically. n If you do not use the generator for a lengthy period during autumn, but then wish to use it again in winter, we recommend that you keep the tank almost empty or drain it as described in point

n Ask at your filling station when you should change to winter diesel and fill the tank with winter diesel before the onset of outdoor temperatures of between -3°C and -10°C. n If the diesel fuel still freezes, you must move the diesel generator to a place where the temperature is approximately +10°C for a period of approximately 12 hours. n If the tank is between halfway and full with normal diesel fuel, this should then be drain as described in point 8.4. n Then fill the tank with winter diesel. n If the tank is between empty and half-full, simply fill it up with winter diesel.
