This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Precautions for Using Rechargeable Appliances
Most rechargeable battery-operated equipment uses a separate charger or
transformer that is plugged into an AC receptacle and produces a low voltage
charging output. Some chargers for rechargeable batteries can be damaged if
connected to the PowerSource 1800.
Do not use the following with the PowerSource 1800:
•
Small battery-operated appliances like flashlights, razors and night lights
that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge.
•
Some chargers for battery packs used in hand power tools. These chargers
display a warning label stating that dangerous voltages are present at the
battery terminals.
Products with Potential Problems
Some products, including the types listed below, may be damaged if they are
connected to the PowerSource 1800:
•
Speed controllers found in some fans, power tools, kitchen appliances,
garage door openers, and other loads may be damaged.
•
Metal halide arc (MHI) lights can be damaged.
Important:
The PowerSource 1800 is not suitable for use with certain products
and loads
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
When the PowerSource 1800 is supplying backup power from its batteries, its
output is a non-sinusoidal modified sine wave, which is different from pure sine
wave utility-supplied electricity. Certain types of load equipment may be
damaged.
Note:
If you are unsure about using your rechargeable appliance with the
PowerSource 1800, contact the equipment manufacturer to determine the rechargeable
appliance’s compatibility with the modified sine wave (non-sinusoidal) AC wave form.
