Common Power Output Problems
Battery voltage below 10.5 volts
Recharge battery or check DC power supply.
Equipment being operated draws too much power
Reduce load to maximum 120 watts for 30 minutes or 100 watts continuous.
Inverter in thermal shutdown condition
Allow inverter to cool down. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the load is no more than 100 watts for continuous
operation.
AC output is shorted
Unplug the AC appliance. Disconnect the unit from any 12 volt DC power source. Check the appliance cord. Refer to the Service
Information section that follows.
Red Fault LED Indicator Lights
When the Power/Fault LED Indicator turns from blue (indicating the unit is powered) to red, a fault condition is present and the
unit will automatically shut down. See the Protective Features Section of this Instruction Manual and Common Power Output
Problems in the previous section.

Operation of the 120 Volt AC Outlet and USB Charging Port
1. Connect the unit to a vehicle’s accessory outlet or other 12 volt DC power source. Make sure there is adequate space for
proper ventilation of the inverter.
2. Rotate the unit slightly to make sure there is good contact.
3. The bi-color power/fault LED indicator will light blue, indicating a proper connection. If the bi-color power/fault LED
indicator lights red, a fault condition exists. Refer to the Troubleshooting Section of this Instruction Manual.
4. Plug the 110/120 volt AC appliance into the inverter’s three-prong AC outlet and/or plug the USB-powered device into the
inverter’s USB charging port and operate normally.
Notes:
If the inverter does not work, make sure the ignition/accessory switch is actually powering the accessory outlet. Some vehicles require the ignition
switch to be turned on.
The inverter will not operate appliances and equipment that generate heat, such as hair dryers, electric blankets, microwave ovens and toasters.
This inverter’s USB charging port does not support data communication. It only provides 5 volts/2,000 mA DC power to an external USB-powered
device.
Some USB-powered household electronics may not operate with this USB charging/power port. Check the manual of the corresponding electronic
device to confirm that it can be used with this type of USB charging/power port.
Remember to disconnect the unit from any power source when it is not in use.
OPERATING TIPS
The inverter should only be operated in locations that are:
DRY — Do not allow water or other liquids to come into contact with the inverter.
COOL — Surrounding air temperature should ideally be 10-20°C (50-68°F). Keep the inverter away from direct sunlight, when
possible.
WELL-VENTILATED — Keep the area surrounding the inverter clear to ensure free air circulation around the unit. Do not place
items on or over the inverter during operation. The unit will shut down if the internal temperature gets too hot. The inverter
will auto-reset after it cools down.
SAFE — Do not use the inverter near flammable materials or in any locations that may accumulate flammable fumes or gases.
This is an electrical appliance that can briefly spark when electrical connections are made or broken.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Storage
1. Optimal storage temperature for this unit is between 0-40°C (32-104°F).
2. Store and use the inverter in a cool, dry place with adequate ventilation for all-around air circulation.
3. Avoid locations that are exposed to heating units, radiators, direct sunlight, or excessive humidity or dampness.
Fuse Replacement
If the inverter is overloaded, and the blue LED is not lit, the internal 8 amp fuse may be blown. To replace the fuse:
1. Unscrew the flange of the plug (counterclockwise).
2. Remove the end contact, flange and fuse.
3. Inspect the fuse to see if it is good or blown.
4. Replace with a new 8 amp fuse, if needed.
5. Carefully reassemble the fuse, end contact and flange. Do not overtighten the flange (clockwise).
TROUBLESHOOTING
Common Audio/Visual Problems
Buzzing sound in audio systems
Some inexpensive stereo systems and boom boxes make a buzzing sound when operated from the inverter, because the power
supply in the electronic device does not properly filter the modified sine wave produced by the inverter. The only solution to
this problem is to use a sound system that has a higher quality power supply.
Television Interference
The inverter is shielded to minimize interference with TV signals. However, in some instances, some interference may still be
visible, especially when the TV signal is weak. Try the following to improve the picture:
1. Move the Inverter as far away as possible from the TV set, the antenna, and the antenna cables. Use a short AC extension
cord, if necessary.
2. Adjust the orientation of the antenna cables, and the TV power cord to minimize interference.
3. Make sure that the antenna feeding the TV provides an adequate (snow-free) signal and that high quality, shielded antenna
cable is used.
