Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this Wagan Pure Sine Wave DC to AC Power 
Inverter. It delivers a true sine wave AC identical to that of commercial power. 
Use this inverter to power AC appliances in your vehicle, at a campsite, or 
at home as an emergency source of AC power. Pure Sine Wave AC means 
that your sensitive electronics such as audio/video systems, computers, and 
communications equipment will operate properly. This inverter is powered from 
12 volts DC and it will continuously deliver 5,000 watts AC power at 120 
Volts, 60 Hz.

For your convenience, this inverter is supplied with a wireless remote control 
and a set of cables. The installer must install a fuse and fuse holder for battery 
protection. See Configuring Battery Bank section.

This Wagan 5,000 watt Pure Sine Wave Inverter is an indispensable addition 
to your compliment of mobile power equipment. With minimal care and 
proper treatment it will provide years of reliable service. 

Read and understand this manual before installing and operating this inverter. 
Keep this manual for future use.

About This Inverter. 

This power inverter converts 12 volts, direct current (12V DC) to 120 
volts alternating household current (120V AC). It easily powers TV/VCR 
combinations, small microwave ovens, and refrigerators. It also operates at 
high efficiency (up to 90%) that results in long running time and extended 
battery life compared to other inverters with this level of power output. 

This inverter has the highest surge capability in its class. Superior surge 
capability of 10,000 watts allows the inverter to start most difficult motorized 
appliances. Advanced microprocessor-controlled circuits run cooler and are 
more reliable than competing units. 

General Instructions:

•  Keep the inverter away from any direct heat source or combustible 

materials. 

•  Keep well ventilated–this device generates heat. 
•  Keep the inverter away from combustible gases. 
•  Do not continuously operate any equipment over 5,000 watts. 
•  This inverter is designed to operate from a 12 volt DC power source 

only. 

•  Do not attempt to connect the inverter to any other power source,  

including any AC power source. 

•  Incorrect battery polarity will damage the inverter and void the warranty. 
•  Keep this inverter in a dry environment. 
•  Do not open the inverter; there are no user serviceable parts inside.
