Possible Causes:
Suggested Remedy
Car Power inverter
will not Operate
Car power inverter not
adequately warmed up
Turn INVERTER power switch off
and on until the INVERTER powers
your
appliance.
Repeat
as
necessary until appliance starts
Battery voltage < 10V
Charge or replace battery
Equipment being operated
draws to much power.
Reduce load to maximum of 150W
Car power inverter in
thermal
shut
down
condition.
Car power inverter must cool
down. Check for good ventilation.
Make sure load is less than
30Watts continuous operation.
Car power inverter fuse
had blown
Call the helpline for instructions on
how to return your unit for service.
Battery in poor condition
Have battery checked. Replace
battery
Low Voltage Alarm
on Continuously
Insufficient power or large
voltage drop
Check condition of cigarette lighter
plug. Clean or place as necessary.
Low output voltage
Using
average
reading
voltmeter. Car Power Point
is overloaded
True RMS reading meter Reduce
load to continuous 150Watts to
maintain supply.
Input
voltage
below
11.0Volts.
Keep input voltage above 11.0
volts to maintain supply.
Television
Interference
Snow, picture breaking up.
a) Locate the INVERTER as far
away as possible from the
television, the antenna and the
antenna cables.
b) Adjust the orientation of the
INVERTER, the antenna cables and
the TV power cord to reduce
interference.
c) Make sure that the antenna
feeding the TV provides an
adequate (“snow free”) signal and
that high quality, shielded antenna
cable is used. The power supply in
the device does not adequately
filter the modified sine wave
produced by the INVERTER. Use a
sound system that uses a higher
quality power supply.
