OFF switch. This fuse protects the inverter from an unlikely excessive input current. Ordinary
overloads will cause the inverter to automatically shut down. When this happens, reduce the
load and restart the inverter.
Using The Power Inverter
1. Open the AC outlet dust cover
2. Connect the AC appliance or appliances to either AC outlet
3. Turn on the Inverter using the Inverter’s ON/OFF switch
• “O” = OFF
• “I” = USB and DC sockets ON
• “II” = Everything On (AC outlets, USB Port, and DC sockets)
4. If the Inverter Power Indicator LED light is green, the inverter is operating
5. Turn on one AC appliance and observe the Power Indicator
6. If the LED remains green, then turn on the second appliance
7. If the Power Indicator remains green, then both appliances are operating properly
8. After use, remove the appliance plug and close the dust cover
9. Recharge Power Dome as soon as convenient
NOTES: If the Power indicator LED is not lit, then reduce the AC load. If the inverter is still
not operating, refer to the troubleshooting table at the end of this User’s Manual.
CAUTION:
Some rechargeable devices are equipped with a separate AC charger. These devices
will most likely operate properly with this inverter. Rechargeable devices that have built-in
chargers (see device owner’s manual) may not operate properly with this type
of inverter.
The motors of some motorized devices may operate at excessive motor temperature.
Abnormally elevated temperature of the motor is an indication that they should not be used
with this inverter.
Some televisions and other electronics with sensitive components should be checked to see
if they are compatible with modified sine wave (non-sinusoidal) inverters. Check with the
appliance manufacturer.
JUMPSTART WARNINGS
Lead-acid batteries can release explosive gasses. Failure to follow instructions may cause
property damage, explosion hazard, and/or personal injury.
• This product is not a toy, keep out of the reach of children.
• Do not operate this device while wearing vinyl clothing. Static electricity may be
generated when vinyl clothing is rubbed.
• Remove any metallic jewelry, such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches while
working with a lead acid battery. It can produce a short-circuit that may cause severe
burns.
• Wear complete eye protection. Do not touch eyes while working near or with battery.
Battery acid can cause blindness and/or severe burns.
• Do not smoke while jump starting
• Never charge or jump-start a frozen battery.
• To prevent short-circuits and arcing, never allow the metal ends/tips of clamps
(positive & negative terminals) to touch each other or connect to the same piece of
metal.
• Power Dome is for use with 12 volt systems
• Jump start a vehicle or boat in a well ventilated area
• After using the jump starter, turn OFF Power Safety switch
• Excessive engine cranking can damage the vehicle‘s starter motor. If the engine fails
to start after the recommended number of attempts, discontinue jumpstart procedure
and look for other problems that may need to be corrected.
• If vehicle to be started has a Positive Grounded System (positive battery terminal is
connected to chassis):
i. Connect negative (-) black clamp to vehicle battery‘s negative terminal.
ii. Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle chassis or a solid, non-moving, metal
vehicle component or body part. DO NOT clamp directly to positive battery
terminal or moving part.
Jumpstarting
1. Review the Jumpstart Warnings
2. Make sure all vehicle appliances, lights, radio, etc. are turned OFF
3. Make sure the vehicle’s brake is set and the transmission is in “Park”
4. Make sure all Power Dome switches are OFF
5. Securely connect the Red (+) cable Clamp to the vehicle’s Positive (+) battery terminal
6. Connect the Black (-) cable Clamp to a non-moving part on the vehicle
7. Observe the color of the REVERSE POLARITY LED that is located between the Battery
Status and Work Light Switches
8. If the LED is RED—DO NOT TURN ON THE CABLE JUMPER SWITCH
• Cable clamps need to be reversed
• Disconnect the black clamp first and then the RED cable clamp
