IMPORTANT & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS — This manual contains important safety and operating
instructions for inverter.
2. Do not expose inverter to rain or snow.
3. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the inverter manufacturer may result
in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
4. Do not disassemble inverter; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
5. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug inverter from outlet before attempting any mainte-
nance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
6. Never place inverter directly above battery; gases from battery will corrode and damage
marine inverter.
7. Never allow battery acid to drip on inverter when reading gravity or filling battery.
GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
Inverters should be grounded to reduce risk of electric shock. Inverter is equipped with electric
receptacles capable of accepting an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
DANGER
Never alter AC cord or plug provided — if it will not fit outlet, have proper cord installed by a
qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock.
