Notes

• Loose connections can result in severe decrease in voltage, which may cause

damage to the component or product you wish to operate.

• The audible alarm may make a momentary "chirp" when the inverter is turned

ON(I) or OFF(O). This same alarm may also sound when the inverter is being

connected to or disconnected from the 12-volt power source. This is normal.

• If the GREEN LED Indicator Light blinks when you first turn the inverter ON(I),

this may indicate an interruption of the power supply. Simply turn the inverter

OFF(O) and remove the 12-volt power cord from the cigarette lighter socket

(or other 12-volt power source). Firmly re-insert the 12-volt power cord, then

turn the inverter ON(I) again. Or, if you are using the cables, try removing and

reconnecting the clamps. If this does not fix the problem, try using a different

12-volt power source or check the cigarette lighter fuse.

• If using an appliance above 180-watts, you must use the supplied battery clips

for direct connection to the 12-volt power source.

• If using more than one appliance, do not exceed a combined total of 400 watts.

Source of Power

Most automobile and marine batteries will provide an ample power supply to

the inverter for 30 to 60 minutes even when the engine is turned off. Actual

time may vary depending on the age and condition of the battery and the power

demand being placed on it by the equipment being operated.

If you decide to use the inverter while the engine is off, we recommend that you

start the engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for approximately 10

minutes to recharge the battery. It is also recommended that the device

plugged into the inverter be turned OFF before starting the vehicle engine.

Although it is not necessary to disconnect the inverter when starting the vehicle

engine, it may momentarily cease to operate as the battery voltage decreases.

When the inverter is not supplying power, it draws very low amperage from the

battery. It is recommended that the inverter always be disconnected when not

in use.

Blown Automotive Fuses

Depending on the make and model of your automobile, running the power

inverter near full capacity from your cigarette lighter socket may result in a

blown automotive cigarette lighter fuse. This fuse will need to be replaced with

the same type and size fuse. A blown automotive cigarette lighter fuse will not

cause damage to your vehicle's wiring.

To avoid blowing an automotive fuse, do not operate the power inverter over

180 watts from your cigarette lighter or other 12-volt power port. You should

connect the inverter directly to the 12-volt power source using the supplied

battery clips.

Blown Inverter Fuses

Your power inverter is equipped with a 40-amp spade type fuse. With

reasonable care, it should not be necessary to replace this fuse.

In general, most blown fuses are the result of reverse polarity hook up of the

inverter to a 12-volt power source (positive to negative and/or negative to

positive). If the fuse happens to blow, disconnect the appliance or equipment

from the inverter immediately. Find the source of the problem, repair it and

then install a new fuse of the same type and size located on the rear panel of the

inverter.

Note: Always disconnect the power inverter from the 12-volt power source and

make sure the inverter is turned OFF before replacing the fuse.

Safety and Usage Precautions

• For best operating results, place the inverter on a flat surface

• Keep inverter dry. Do not expose inverter to rain or moisture.

• DO NOT operate the inverter if you, the inverter, the device being operated, or

any surface that may come into contact with the inverter are wet. Water and

other liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to serious injury or death.

• Avoid placing the inverter on or near heating vents, radiators or other sources

of heat. Do not place or use the inverter in direct sunlight. Ideal air

temperatures should be between 50° and 80° F .

• In order to properly disperse the heat generated from the inverter while it is

operating, keep the inverter well ventilated. Keep the area surrounding the

inverter clear while in use.

• Do not use the inverter near flammable materials. Do not place the inverter in

areas such as battery compartments where fumes or gases may

accumulate.

Inverter Protection Features

• Short Circuit Protection. The inverter will automatically shut down until

short is removed.

• Low Voltage Alarm. An alarm will sound when the voltage from the battery

discharges to 10.5 +/- 0.5 volts DC. This is an indication that the battery needs

to be recharged.

• Over Voltage Protection. The RED LED Indicator Light will illuminate and

the inverter will automatically turn itself off when the input exceeds

16.5 +/- 1 volt DC.
