BASIC OPERATION
Note: Use the right operating voltage for both input and output of the inverter.
Connecting to Power Source (Directly to a 12V DC battery):
1. Unscrew the red and black terminal covers of the inverter.
2. Attach the red, positive (+) wire to the positive terminal. Secure
the wire with the terminal cover.
3. Attach the other end of the wire to the red, positive (+) terminal
of the battery.
4. Repeat the previous 2 steps with the black, negative (−) terminal
and matching black wire.
CONNECTING AND USING AC APPLIANCES
1. Plug an AC product into the three prong AC receptacle and/or a USB
powered appliance into one of the USB power sockets and turn the
inverter on. The green LED will light up. Ensure the total power of all your
products draws 700 watts or less of continuous AC power.
2. To avoid discharging the battery power source, always turn the power
inverter off and disconnect the inverter from the power supply when not
in use.
3. Disconnect the inverter from a vehicle when starting the engine.
4. If the inverter makes a beeping sound, turn off the inverter and
disconnect all appliances from the inverter. Disconnect the inverter
from the power supply. The beeping sound is a low battery warning,
indicating the voltage of the battery power supply is getting low. Please
restart the vehicle engine and charge the battery before operating it with
the power inverter again.
TIPS
Measuring the AC Voltage
The output waveform of the AC inverter is a modified sine wave. To measure the
AC output voltage you must use a true RMS voltmeter.
