CAUTION: Protect against possible electrical shock 
hazards. If the inverter is operated in wet or damp 
conditions a user-supplied, portable GFCI (ground 
fault circuit interruptor) must be connected between 
each inverter receptacle and the equipment it powers.

CAUTION: You may experience uneven performance 
results if you connect a surge suppressor, line 
conditioner or UPS system to the output of the 
inverter.
