the green Power LED of the Inverter 

will light up. 

Note:

 If the green LED fails to light and the 

alarm and red Fault LED lights stay 

on instead, check the Troubleshoot-

ing Tips section near the end of this 

manual to correct the issue before 

continuing.
To power each device or appliance:

6. 

With the device or 

a. 

appliance 

switched off, plug it into one of the 

Power Outlets or the USB Outlet on 

the Power Inverter.  
Turn on the device and/or 

b. 

appliance. 

After use, turn all connected devices 

7. 

or appliances off, unplug them, then 

turn off the vehicle’s engine if it is 

running. Keep the inverter turned on 

and remove the alligator clips from 

the battery posts, removing the Nega-

tive (black) clip first, then the Positive 

(red) clip. The Inverter green LED will 

turn off, and the alarm and red LED 

light will turn on as the Inverter pow-

ers down. Turn off the Inverter power 

button.

Note:

 The total wattage of all items 

plugged into the Power Inverter must 

not use more than 200 watts during 

continuous operation, otherwise the 

Inverter may overload.

Note:

 If an alarm sound is heard, turn off 

the appliances and check the Trou-

bleshooting Tips section near the end 

of this manual to correct the issue 

before continuing.

caution:

 Some rechargeable appliances 

may damage the Power Inverter 

or the appliance.  When first using 

a rechargeable device, check the 

inverter’s temperature for the first 10 

minutes.  If it becomes abnormally 

hot, do not use this device with the 

Inverter.

caution:

  It is recommended that the ve-

hicle be running when you first con

-

nect the Power Inverter. Thereafter 

the engine can be on or off. If you run 

the Power Inverter with the engine 

off it is recommended that you start 

and run the engine every hour for at 

least 10 minutes to recharge the bat-

tery.  Doing this will help prevent any 

unexpected shutdown of the equip-

ment.  This will also help ensure that 

there will be enough battery power 

to start the vehicle.

  due to the risk 

of carbon monoxide inhalation, do 

not run the vehicle’s engine within 

an enclosed area.

You should not use your car battery 

to power the Inverter for extended pe-

riods of time with appliances requir-

ing high continuous load levels. The 

battery may become drained to the 

point that it will not be able to start 

your car.

Note:

 Deep cycle (marine and RV) bat-

teries  can be charged more times 

than a car battery, and are a better 

choice for repeated use of the Power 

Inverter.  

 

Do not discharge your car battery 

more than 10% of its total capacity, 

and deep cycle batteries more than a 

50% discharged state.
