TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
Inverter will not turn
on
The power needed
to start AC applianc-
es may be as much
as 2 to 8 times its
continuous wattage
requirements.
Read the information panel on each AC
appliance carefully to accurately determine
the tool’s input wattage.
“BUZZING” sound in
audio systems.
The power supply in
the electronic device
does not adequately
filter the modified
sine wave produced
by the inverter.
Use a higher quality sound system that in-
corporates a higher quality power amplified
supply.
Television interfer-
ence.
The inverter is
shielded to minimize
interference with TV
signals. The problem
may not be with the
inverter. However,
in some instances,
some interference
may still be visible,
particularly with
weak TV signals.
Position the inverter as far as possible
from the television, the antenna and the
antenna cables. Use an extension cable, if
necessary.
Adjust the orientation of the inverter, the
antenna cables and the TV power cord to
minimize interference.
Make sure that the antenna feeding the
television provides an adequate (“snow
free”) signal and that high quality, shielded
antenna cable is used.
Do not operate appliances and TV at the
same time in order to maintain maximum
efficiency
