Samlexpower SI-A1-VR1500 Owner's Manual - 6 Common Problems
6 COMMON PROBLEMS
POWER TOOLS AND MICROWAVE OVENS WON’T START
Read the information panel on each power tool carefully to accurately determine
the tool’s input wattage. The wattage output is sufficient to operate most power
tools and microwave ovens but remember that the power needed to start the
power tool may be as much as 2 to 6 times its continuous wattage requirements.
“BUZZING” SOUND IN AUDIO SYSTEMS:
Some inexpensive stereo systems and “boom boxes” emit a buzzing sound
from their speakers when operated from the power inverter. This occurs
because the power supply in the electronic device does not adequately filter
the modified sine wave produced by the inverter. The only solution to this
problem is to use a higher quality sound system that incorporates a higher
quality power amplified supply.
TELEVISION INTERFERENCE:
The inverter is designed to minimize interference with TV signals. The problem
may not be with the inverter. However, in some instances, some interference
may still be visible, particularly with weak TV signals. Try the following
corrective measures:
-
Position the inverter as far as possible from the television, the antenna and
the antenna cables. Use an extension cable, if necessary.
-
Adjust the orientation of the inverter, the antenna cables and the TV power
cord to minimize interference.
-
Make sure that the antenna feeding the television provides an adequate
(“snow free”) signal and that high quality, shielded antenna cable is used.
-
Do not operate high-power appliances or tools when you are watching TV.
By the advanced technology of SAMLEX, L.I.T greatly reduces the
possibility of interference with TV signals and audios.
