snug fit. The (green) LED will light up.
2. Plug an AC product into the three prong AC receptacle and turn it on.
Ensure your product draws 100 watts or less of continuous AC power.
To avoid discharging the battery, always remove the inverter from the
lighter socket when not in use.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem: AC product does not operate, green light does not light
Probable Cause
Suggested Remedy
AC product connected is rated at
more than 100 watts; overload
shutdown occurs.
Use product with a power rating of
less than 100 watts.
High starting surge has caused
overload shutdown even though AC
product connected is rated at less
than 225 watts.
Product exceeds inverter’s surge
capability. Use a product with
starting surge power of less than
225 watts.
Lighter socket or 12 volt outlet may
require ignition to be switched on.
Turn ignition key to accessory
position.
Poor contact with lighter socket or 12
volt outlet.
Press inverter firmly into the lighter
socket. Make sure the socket is
clean.
Battery is discharged.
Recharge battery.
Fuse blown by heavy load.
Replace the 8A slow blow fuse by
unscrewing the fitting in the positive
connector.
Problem: Buzzing sound in audio systems
Inexpensive stereo systems have an inadequate internal power supply filtering
which causes a buzzing sound. A system with a high quality filter is the only
solution.
