CAUTION:
Making an initial connection between the positive cable end and the inverter’s
positive terminal may cause a spark. This is a normal and is a result of capacitors in the
inverter starting to charge. Because of the possibility of sparking, it is extremely important
that both the inverter and the battery be positioned away from any source of flammable
fumes or gases. Failure to heed this warning can result in fire or explosion. Do not make the
positive terminal connection immediately after the batteries have been charging. Allow time
for the battery gasses to vent to outside air.
Although all inverters are shielded and filtered to minimize signal interference, some
interference with your television picture may be unavoidable, especially with weak signals.
However, here are some suggestions that may improve reception.
• Make sure that the television antenna produces a clear signal under normal operating
conditions (i.e. plugged into a standard 110 V/115 V AC wall outlet). Also ensure that the
antenna cable is of good quality and properly shielded.
• Sometimes vehicle alternators produce some electrical noise. There are filters available to
mount on the alternator to reduce the noise.
• Change the positions of the inverter, antenna cables, and television power cord.
• Isolate the television, its power cord, and antenna cables from the 12 volt power source
by running an extension cord from the inverter to the television.
Note:
If an extension cord is used from the inverter to the appliance, limit the extension cord
length to 100' (30 m) or less. Make sure that the cord is safety approved and AWG 10 or
greater to carry the appliance load. Remember that extension cords are for temporary use.
WARNING: THERE IS DANGER OF EXPLOSION. DO NOT CONNECT OR DISCONNECT
INVERTER CABLES DIRECTLY AFTER BATTERY DISCHARGE OR
RECHARGE—MAKE SURE THAT THE BATTERY AREA IS WELL VENTED
BEFORE ATTACHING OR REMOVING CABLES.
1. Remove the terminal covers from the inverter.
2. Connect the positive (+) connector of battery clamps to positive (+) DC input terminal
(7) of Inverter.
Connect the negative (-) connector of battery clamps to negative (-) DC input terminal
(8) of Inverter.
Connect the red (+) battery clamp to positive (+) terminal of the vehicle battery.
Connect the black (-) battery clamp to negative (-) terminal of the vehicle battery.
Make sure you have good, secure connections.
3. Switch the ON/OFF switch to Position "I". Make certain that the green Operating LED is
lit and the FAULT LED indicator is not lit.
4. Switch the ON/OFF switch to Position "O". The Fault LED may briefly “flash”. This is
normal.
The audible alarm may also sound a short “chirp”. This is also normal.
5. Plug the appliance into one of the two AC outlets. Make sure the appliance is off before
plugging it in. Connect devices to USB port for charging (if needed).
6. Turn the inverter on.
7. Turn the appliance on. The appliance should begin working.
8. Observe the LED indicators for normal operation.
