Your 1000 Watt Power Inverter converts 12-volt vehicle 
battery power into 115 volts of AC power. You can use 
the inverter in your vehicle to operate many types of 
appliances that use AC power such as TVs, VCRs, 
portable computers, power tools, and lights for 
emergency or camping use. 
 
The inverter works with your vehicle’s engine turned on 
or off (accessory mode). It provides a continuous output 
of up to 1000 watts. 
 
 

BASIC OPERATION 

 

• 

Use the right operating voltage for both input and 
output of the inverter. 

• 

Powering devices by connecting 

 

from inverter to 

 

of battery terminal and connect

If the power inverter makes a beeping sound, turn 

OFF the power inverter and disconnect all 

appliances from inverter and disconnect the inverter 

from power supply.  The beeping sound is simply the 

low battery warning, which indicates that the voltage 

of the battery power supply is getting low.  Please 

restart the vehicle engine before operating the 

power inverter.
