1. If possible run a heavy gauge earth wire from battery negative to a moist ground stake; also connect this to the earth stud
on the chassis of the inverter.
2. Separate AC and DC wiring.
3. Improve signal strength of receiver by improving antenna.
4. Reposition inverter as far away from receiver as possible.
Inverter stays shut down for a long time after overload.
The inverter is responding to either a severe overload or repeated overloads turn the inverters circuit breaker OFF for 30 seconds
and then reconnect. If the cause of the original shutdown is still present, the inverter will shut down again. Reduce load or allow
inverter to cool down.
How long will my battery last?

Example: a 16 inch TV (67 Watts) running on 130AH battery
* Note: Use a figure of 20 if your battery voltage is 24V DC. Only 50% of the batteries capacity will be used to allow it to
recover.
How can I tell if my Inverter is in Standby if I am in the house?
It is important to keep your inverter in standby whenever no power is being used. A power point with a neon indicator or a
child’s night light will mimic the output of the inverter. Eg, these will flash when the inverter is in standby. This feature will save
unnecessary battery drain.
RS232 Output
Your Bolero inverter features an RS232 data output, whilst this is mainly intended as a manufacturing tool, it is possible to connect
this to a computer to read certain parameters. Use a 9 pin RS232 cable to connect your Bolero to a computer using a program such
as ProComm, Hyperterminal etc (setting 4800Baud, 8N1). Please ask for further information regarding this feature.
