•  Do not modify the AC receptacle in any way.

•  Use only 40-amp or 50-amp fuses. (Replaced by certified 

technician only.)

•  This  device  does  not  include  an  internal  Ground  Fault 

Circuit  Interrupter  (GFCI).  For  GFCI  protection,  use  a 

Coleman Cable 02822 GFCI outlet.

WARNING:

 Handling the cord on this product or cords as-

sociated with accessories sold with this product, may expose 

you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California to 

cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. 

Wash hands after handling.

BEfORE USING PID-760 POWER INvERTER

It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device 

you plan to use with the inverter. The PID-760 must be used 

with devices drawing 760 watts or less. If the wattage is not 

marked on the device, an estimate can be made by multiply-

ing the AC input current (Amps) by the AC voltage (110V). 

Devices like TVs, fans or electric motors require additional 

power to start (commonly known as the “starting or peak 

power”).  The  PID-760  can  supply  a  momentary  surge  in 

wattage; however even devices rated less than the maximum 

760  watts  can  exceed  the  inverters  surge  capability  and 

cause an automatic overload shutdown.

Make sure the device you are using is compatible with a 

modified sine wave inverter.
