hazard
To reduce the risk of irritation and burns, wear protective
eyewear and clothing when you work with batteries.
Take special care to ensure that metal tools or personal
objects like rings or watches do not contact the battery
terminals.
CAUTION: Risk of damage to the XPower

The XPower 500 must only be operated with a nominal 12
volt battery. The inverter will not operate with a lower

Reversing the positive and negative battery cables will
damage the inverter and will void your warranty.

the connections. The red wire must be connected to the red
(+) terminal on the inverter and the positive (+) terminal
on the battery. The black wire must be connected to the
black (–) terminal on the inverter and the negative (–)
