Connecting for loads under 150 W
For loads under 150 W, you can use the lighter plug cable.
Follow these steps to connect the unit with the lighter plug cable:
1. Place the inverter on a flat surface such as the floor of your vehicle.
2. Make sure that the unit is off by verifying the digital display is off.
3. Connect the ring terminals on the lighter plug cable to the cabling
terminals on the unit. (The cabling terminals are shown in Figure
2.) Fasten the positive (red) ring terminal to the positive cabling
terminal, and then fasten the negative (black) ring terminal to the
negative cabling terminal.
CAUTION: Reverse polarity
Power connections of the 12 V DC battery to the inverter must be
positive to positive and negative to negative.
A reverse polarity connection (positive to negative) will blow a fuse in
the inverter and may permanently damage the unit. Damage caused by a
reverse polarity connection is not covered by your warranty.
CAUTION
Make sure you connect red to red and black to black, and make sure you
screw the nuts on tightly.
