Generac WiFi Module
Easy Installation Guide
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for choosing a Generac Home Standby Generator for peace of mind and security during power outages. Due to ongoing global shortages and inconsistent supply of microprocessor chips, your generator was shipped without the module that enables it to connect to your WiFi network and communicate with the Mobile Link Remote Monitoring app.
This package includes the WiFi accessory and simple do-it-yourself instructions for installation and connection to your home network. We have also included instructions to help you monitor your generator with the Mobile Link Remote Monitoring app.
Thank you again for your purchase and trust in the Generac brand. For any questions regarding the WiFi module shipment and homeowner installation, please contact Generac directly at 855-436-8439 or visit www.generac.com/wifikitinstall.
