User’s Manual—Read before using this equipment

Attach the positive cable to the Positive (+) DC connector on the battery 
and then the inverter. Make sure the connections are tight and secure. 
Turn ON the inverter from the Front Panel On/OFF Switch
Make certain that the green Operating LED is lit and the FAULT LED 
indicator is not lit.
Turn OFF (0) the inverter. The Fault LED may briefly “flash”. This is 
normal. The audible alarm may also sound a short “chirp”. This is  
also normal. 
When you have confirmed that the appliance to be operated is turned 
off, plug the appliance into one of the two AC outlets on the front panel 
of the inverter. 
Turn the inverter on. 
Check operation of the Remote Switch – Press “Lock” to turn Off   
the inverter. 
Press the Unlock button to turn On the inverter.
Turn the appliance on. The appliance should begin working. 
Observe the LED indicators and the Digital Display for Normal 
operation.

Note: If an extension cord is used from the inverter to the appliance, limit the 
extension cord length to 100 feet or less. Make sure that the cord is safety 
approved and AWG 14 or greater to carry the appliance load. Remember 
that extension cords are for temporary use.

Charging the Battery Bank 

It is not the purpose of this inverter user’s guide to provide detailed information 
regarding battery charging systems. However, the user should try to augment 
any stationary inverter charging system with either wind power or solar 
power. These can continue to operate during power outages and they also 
reduce recharge time. For mobile or marine charging systems, a higher rated 
alternator may be necessary to charge a battery bank.

Regular Loss of Commercial Power 

If the inverter system is used during commercial power outages that occur 
daily, configure the charger system to replace energy during the time that 
commercial power is available. 

Replacement of battery energy always requires more than was taken from 
the battery (typically 30 percent more). Follow battery manufacturer’s 
recommendations for maximum charging current.

If the flooded lead acid batteries are used, be sure that periodic checks of 
battery electrolyte levels are accomplished. Follow battery manufacturer’s 
instructions in keeping the electrolytes at the proper level. Be sure to use pure 
distilled water when replacing evaporated electrolyte liquid. 

Operating Issues 

(Television and Audio Equipment Suggestions.)

Although all inverters are shielded and filtered to minimize signal interference, 
some interference with your television picture may be unavoidable, especially 
with weak signals. However, here are some suggestions that may improve 
reception. 

Make sure that the television antenna produces a clear signal under 
normal operating conditions (i.e. at home plugged into a standard 
110/120V AC wall outlet). Also ensure that the antenna cable is properly 
shielded and of good quality. 
Sometimes vehicle alternators produce some electrical noise. There are 
filters available to mount on the alternator to reduce noise.
Change the positions of the inverter, antenna cables and television  
power cord.
