11. If the inverter is not properly operating, then refer to the troubleshooting
sections of this manual.
CAUTION:
Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and melted
insulation.
CONNECTION TO LOAD
Plug the cord from the equipment you wish to operate into the AC receptacle. The
green LED indicator lights to indicate that the inverter is functioning. Make sure
the combined load requirement of your equipment does not exceed inverter’s
output rating.
The inverter is engineered to be connected directly to standard electrical and
electronic equipment in the manner described above. Do not connect the power
inverter to household or RV AC distribution wiring. Do not connect the power
inverter to any AC load circuit in which the neutral conductor is connected to
ground (earth) or to the negative of the DC (battery) source.
WARNING:
Do not connect to AC distribution wiring. This inverter is NOT grid
interactive.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
For best operating results, the inverter should be placed on flat surface, such as
the ground, car floor, or other solid surface. The power cord allows easy
positioning of the inverter. The inverter should only be used in locations that meet
the following criteria:
DRY
- Do not allow water and/or other liquids to come into contact with the power
inverter. In all marine applications, do not install the inverter below or near the
waterline and keep the inverter away from moisture or water.
COOL
– Ambient air temperature should be between 30 degrees F (-1 degree C)
non-condensing, and 105 degrees F (40 degrees C). Do not place the inverter on
or near a heating vent or any piece of equipment which is generating heat above
room temperature. Keep the inverter away from direct sunlight, if at all possible.
VENTILATED
– Keep the area surrounding the inverter clear to ensure free air
circulation around the unit. Do not place items on or over the inverter during
operation. A fan is helpful if the inverter is operating at maximum power outputs for
extended periods of time. The unit will shut down if the internal temperature
exceeds operating temperatures. The unit will restart after it cools.
