IMPORTANT PRODUCT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important safety instructions that must be
followed during the installation and operation of this product. Read
all instructions and safety information contained in this manual
before installing or using this product.
• All electrical work must be performed in accordance with local,
state, and federal electrical codes.
• This product is designed for indoor/compartment installation.
DO NOT expose to rain, snow, moisture, or liquids of any type.
• Use insulated tools to reduce the chance of electrical shock or
accidental short circuits.
• Remove all jewelry (such as rings, watches, bracelets, etc.)
when installing or performing maintenance on your batteries
and the inverter system.
• Always disconnect the batteries or energy source prior to
installing or performing maintenance on your batteries and
inverter system. Live power may be present at more than one
point since an inverter utilizes both batteries and AC. Turning
off the inverter may not reduce this risk. As long as AC power
is connected, it will pass through the inverter regardless of
the power switch on the inverter or the ON/OFF INVERTER
pushbutton on the remote/router.
• Wear eye protection such as safety glasses when working with
batteries.
• Never work alone. Always have someone near you when working
around batteries.
• Never use old or untested batteries. Check each battery’s label
for age, type, and date code to ensure all batteries are identical.
• Batteries are sensitive to changes in temperature. Always install
batteries in a stable environment.
• Install batteries in a well-ventilated area. Batteries can produce
explosive gasses. For compartment or enclosure installations,
always vent batteries to the outside.
