CAUTION: DO NOT connect the RPPD300 to live AC power circuits. Damage to the inverter will result even if the power switch is in the OFF position. DO NOT connect any AC device which has its neutral conductor connected to ground. DO NOT expose the RPPD300 to air temperatures in excess of 104°F. DO NOT use the RPPD300 on the following items: 1. Small battery-operated appliances such as flashlights, razors and nightlights that can be plugged directly into an AC outlet to recharge. 2. Certain batte

INSTALLATION: Selecting a suitable location The RPPD300 must be installed in an area that meets the following requirements in order to operate safely and provide optimum performance: 1. DRY: DO NOT expose the unit to moisture. 2. COOL: Ambient air temperature should be between 32°F and 104°F. Cooler areas are best. 3. VENTILATION: Allow at least 4 inches of clearance above and around all sides and top of the unit for proper cooling. 4. SAFE: DO NOT install the RPPD300 in a compartment with batte

Connect the Power Cables to the Battery: 1. Connect the cable from the Negative Terminal (Black) of inverter to the Negative Terminal of the battery. 2. Connect the cable from the Positive Terminal (Red) of the inverter to the Positive Terminal of the battery. You might observe a spark when you make this connection since current can flow to charge capacitors in the inverter. CAUTION: Reversing the polarity of these cables (positive to negative) will result in damage to the RPPD300 and will void

Operating Indicators: Red and green LED Indicators on top of your inverter will show the status of the inverter and alert you to conditions that could cause the inverter to shut down. Current Overload Protection: If the inverter is overloaded, it will shut down to protect itself. The red LED will illuminate to indicate Overload Protect. To restore normal operation, disconnect the excessive load and turn the unit Off and On again using the Power Button. CAUTION: Although the inverter has prote

Operating Limits Power Output: The inverter can deliver 300 watts for about 60 minutes. The inverter must cool for 15 minutes before it can resume operation at 300 watts. NOTE: Operating time will vary depending upon the type, capacity charge level of the battery, and the power draw of the AC products you are using. With a normal vehicle battery and a 100 watt load (such as a small television) you can expect an operating time of 2 to 3 hours. It is recommended that you start your vehicle once
