Follow this procedure to connect the battery cables to the DC input terminals on the
inverter. Your cables should be as short as possible (ideally, less than 10 feet / 3 metres).
a.
Unpack and inspect the power inverter, check to see that the power switch in the OFF position.
b.
Connect the DC POSITIVE cable to the Positive (POS+) terminal on the battery.
c.
Connect the cable to the Positive terminal on the inverter.
d.
Connect the DC NEGATIVE cable to the Negative terminal on the inverter.
e.
Connect the cable to the Negative (NEG-) terminal of the battery. This should be the last connection made. A spark
when making this final connection is normal.

Helpful Tip to Conserve Battery Power
Should the inverter not be used over an extended period of time, it is recommended that the battery be disconnected
from the inverter. This will ensure battery will not be drained over the period of non-usage.
Very little maintenance is required to keep your inverter operating properly. You should clean the exterior of the unit
periodically with a damp cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and dirt. At the same time, tighten the screws on the DC
input terminals.
WARNING!
Do not open or disassemble inverter. Attempting to service the unit yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire.
