Important Safety Instructions
1. Before installing and using the Duracell® Inverter 1500, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on the Duracell® 1500, the
batteries, and all appropriate sections of this guide.
2. Do not expose the Duracell® 1500 to rain, snow, spray, or bilge
water. To reduce risk of fire hazard, do not cover or obstruct the
ventilation openings. Do not install the Duracell® 1500 in a zero-
clearance compartment. Overheating may result.
3. Use only attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer.
Doing otherwise may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
4. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that existing
wiring is in good condition and that wire is not undersized. Do not
operate the Duracell® 1500 with damaged or substandard wiring.
5. Do not operate the Duracell® 1500 if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. If the Duracell®
1500 is damaged, see the Warranty section.
6. Do not disassemble the Duracell® 1500. It contains no user-
serviceable parts. See Warranty for instructions on obtaining service.
Attempting to service the Duracell® 1500 yourself may result in a
risk of electrical shock or fire. Internal capacitors remain charged
after all power is disconnected.
7. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC
power from the Duracell® 1500 before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning or working on any circuits connected to the Duracell®
1500. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
8. The Duracell® 1500 must be provided with an equipment-grounding
conductor connected to the AC input ground.
