This chapter contains important safety and installation instructions for the 
Freedom SW Inverter/Charger (Freedom SW). Each time, before using the 
Freedom SW, READ ALL instructions and cautionary markings on or 
provided with the inverter/charger, the batteries, and all appropriate sections 
of this guide.

NOTE:

 The Freedom SW contains no user-serviceable parts. See “Warranty 

and Return Information” on the Owner’s Guide for guidance.

NOTE:

 Turning off the inverter/charger using the on/off switch on the front 

panel will not reduce an electrical shock hazard.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Do not expose the Freedom SW to rain, snow, spray, or bilge water. 
This inverter/charger is designed for marine applications only when 
additional drip protection is installed in certain orientations. See the 
installation guide for information.

Do not operate the inverter/charger if it has received a sharp blow, 
been dropped, has cracks or openings in the enclosure including if the 
fuse cover has been lost, damaged, or will not close, or otherwise 
damaged in any other way.

Do not disassemble the inverter/charger. Internal capacitors remain 
charged after all power is disconnected.

Disconnect both AC and DC power from the inverter/charger before 
attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits 
connected to the inverter/charger. See note below.

Do not operate the inverter/charger with damaged or substandard 
wiring. Make sure that all wiring is in good condition and is not 
undersized.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious 
injury.
