1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Risk of electric shock or fire. 1.1 Keep out of reach of children. 1.2 For the most effective use, place the power inverter on a flat surface. 1.3 Keep the inverter well ventilated in order to properly disperse heat generated while it is use. Make sure there are several inches of clearance around the top and sides and do not block the slots of the inverter. 1.4 Make sure the inverter is not close to any potential source of flammable fum

To calculate the continuous load: Continuous Load = AMPS x 120 (AC Voltage). Always run a test to establish whether the inverter will operate a particular piece of equipment or device. In the event of a power overload, the inverter is designed to automatically shut down. This safety feature prevents damaging the inverter while testing devices and equipment within the wattage range of the inverter. If a device does not operate properly when first connected to the inverter, turn the inverter O

4. CONNECTING INVERTER CABLES The inverter and power source must be in the OFF mode. Make sure you connect your inverter to a 12-volt power supply only. Inverter connection: 1. Locate the positive and negative plastic terminals located on the back of the inverter and remove the terminal caps completely. 2. Install the positive (red) cable ring lug onto the positive (red) terminal screw. Install the negative (black) cable ring lug onto the negative (black) terminal screw. Tighten each terminal

5. Turn the device on. The display will now show the total wattage used by the device. To change the digital display, press the ON/OFF switch. 6. To disconnect, reverse the above procedure. NOTE: If more than one device is to be powered, start one device at a time to avoid a power surge and overloading the inverter. The surge load of each device should not exceed the inverters Continuous Operation wattage rate. If there is a short circuit or power surge in the device, will display and the

3. Try coiling the television power cord and the input cables running from the 12-volt power source to the inverter. 4. Affix one or several “Ferrite Data Line Filters” to the television power cord. Ferrite Data Line Filters can be purchased at most electronic supply stores. NOTE: You may hear a “buzzing” sound being emitted from inexpensive sound systems when operated with the inverter. This is due to ineffective filters in the sound system’s power supply. Unfortunately, this problem can on

• – The continuous load demand from the device exceeds the inverter’s wattage output. • – The inverter is overheated and automatically turns off for a period of 1 to 3 minutes to cool. Make sure the inverter is well ventilated. It will automatically restart after it cools. • – The vehicle’s battery voltage is less than 10.5-volts. • – Short circuit, power surge or overload in the device. 8. IF THE INVERTER FUSE BLOWS Your power inverter is fitted with a fuse, which should n

PROBLEM REASON SOLUTION Inverter does not turn on. Poor contact at terminals Check for poor connection to battery or power supply. Make sure connection points are clean. Rock clamps back and forth for a better connection. Fuse is blown. A blown fuse is usually caused by reverse polarity or a short circuit within the inverter. To replace, contact a qualified service technician who will diagnose the inverter and replace the fuse(s) with the appropriate replacement(s). Inverter may be d
