Cool
Operate the inverter in ambient temperatures between 0°C

vents and direct sunlight.
Well-ventilated
For proper cooling, allow at least 2" (5 cm) of clearance
around the inverter.

Choose a location that is free of any debris that could get
into the inverter.
Safe
Do not install the inverter in a compartment with batteries
or flammable liquids, such as gasoline, or explosive vapors.
