To connect the inverter to a 12 volt battery using the battery
clip wire assembly:
1. Remove the nuts from the DC terminals on the inverter.
2. Place the red ring connector on the red (po) DC
terminal, and then screw the red nut on until it is snug.
Do not over tighten.
3. Attach the red clip to the red (po) battery
terminal.
4. Attach the black clip to the black (negative –) battery
terminal.
5. Place the black ring connector on the black (negative –)
DC terminal, and then screw the black nut on until it is
snug. Do not over tighten.
Note:
A spark may occur when you make this
connection. This is normal.
6. Check that both clips are securely connected to the
battery terminals. A loose connection will cause
excessive voltage drop and may cause the cables to
overheat. This could result in equipment damage or fire.
7. Turn on the On/Standby switch. The green
PWR
light
comes on, and AC power is available at the outlet.
