IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure reliable service, your power inverter must be installed and used properly. Please read the
installation and operating instructions thoroughly prior to installation and use. Pay particular attention to
the WARNING and CAUTION statements in this manual. The CAUTION statements advise against cer-
tain conditions and practices that may result in damage to your inverter. The WARNING statements

Read All Instructions Before Using This Power Inverter!
WARNINGS:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR INJURY
•
Do not connect to AC distribution wiring
•
Remove appliance plug from outlet strip or turn off inverter before working on the appliance.
Multiple outlet power strips with switches and circuit breakers only interrupt power to the “hot”
receptacle terminals. The “neutral” terminals remain powered with respect to the “ground”
terminals
•
Do not make any electrical connections or disconnections in areas designated as IGNITION
PROTECTED. This includes DC cigarette lighter type plug connections, and ring terminal
connections
•
This is not a toy - keep away from children
CAUTIONS:
•
Do not use with positive ground electrical systems (the majority of modern automobiles, RVs,
trucks and boats are negative ground). Reverse polarity connection will result in a blown fuse and
may cause permanent damage to the inverter and will void warranty
•
This inverter will not operate high wattage appliances or equipment that produce heat, such as
hair dryers, microwave ovens and toasters
•
Do not ground the neutral. This will shut down the inverter
•
Do not operate this inverter if it is wet
•
Do not install in engine compartment
•
Do not parallel the output of this inverter with the AC output of another AC power source. The
inverter will be damaged.
•
This inverter is not tested for use with medical devices
IMPORTANT CABLE INFORMATION
Substantial power loss and reduced battery operating time results from inverters installed with cables
that are not able to supply full power. Symptoms of low battery power can result from cables that are
either excessively long or an insufficient gauge. Marine installations are also subjected to vibration and
stresses that exceed those of other mobile installations. Therefore, the installer/operator should be
especially aware of the requirements to maintain secure, tight, water-resistant electrical connections
and to provide for strain relief for DC cables and appliance wiring. Cable insulation must be the
appropriate type for the environment.
