BAT T E R Y USE
SAFE T Y PR E CAUT ION
Do not open the case of the inverter. The high voltage
inside the unit is the same type of power as your
electrical outlets at home.
•
If you choose to connect the inverter directly to your
battery terminals, it is important to connect with right

Do not let the cord of the inverter or any appliance’s cord
get wet.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the inverter in or around water. The
voltage of the unit makes electrical shock hazard if
operated in wet conditions.
THE FOLLOWINGS OPERATION WILL DAMAGE AND
VOID THE WARRANTY OF THE INVERTER:

Do not connect the AC inverter directly to another AC
power source.
DISCONNECTING THE INVERTER FIRST.
CONNECTING THE INVERTER TO POWER
SOURCE GREATER THAN 15-VOLT DC.
OPERATING THE INVERTER AND BATTERY IN
OR AROUND WATER.
Keep it away from children, the inverter produces power
just like your AC wall outlets at home and should be
treated seriously.
•
•
Allow at least 2 inch of clearance around the inverter for
airflow.
ME ASUR ING T HE AC V OL T AGE
If you operate the inverter in a moving vehicle, you need
to secure the inverter to prevent it from shifting around
while the vehicle is moving.
The output waveform of the AC inverter is a MODIFIED
SINEWAVE. To measure the AC output voltage, you
must use a TRUE RMS VOLTMETER.
If there is anything wrong with the inverter, disconnect all
of the power.

Condition
3.
Make sure that the antenna feeding your television
provides an adequate (“snow free”) signal and that
you are using good quality cable between the
antenna and the television.
S olution

Battery voltage is
too low
Clean contact parts thoroughly
Start the engine to recharge the
battery. Replace the battery if
needed.
4. Move the television as far away from the power
inverter as possible.
5. Keep the cables between the battery and the power
inverter as short as possible and twist them together
with about 2 to 3 twists per foot. This minimizes
radiated interference from the cables.

power
MAINT E NANCE
Very little maintenance is required to keep the inverter
operating properly.
HINTS
Adding E xtens ion Cord
DE SCR IPT ION
If you need extension cord, we recommend the use of an
extension cord between the AC output of inverter and
AC appliances. You may use up to 100 ft. of high quality
extension cord. A long cord will result in reduced output
power.
3000W Peak Power — allow you to power appliances
that require a large amount of initial (peak) power to
work (such as many TVs and motor-power equipments).
Low B attery Alarm — the inverter sounds an audible
alarm then turns itself off if the source battery becomes
too low.
B uzz in audio s ys tem
Some stereo systems and “boom boxes” will emit a
buzzing noise from their loudspeakers when operated
from the power inverter because the power supply in the
device does not adequately filter the modified sine wave
produced by the power inverter. The only solution is to
use a sound system that incorporates a higher quality
power supply.
Auto S hutdown/R es et Protection — the inverter
temporarily shuts itself down to protect itself from
overheating.
Overload/S hort Circuit Protection — the inverter
automatically turns itself off if the connected load is too
high or if it shorts.
Operating a TV
Picture tubes have a degaussing coil that uses a high
initial surge of power to light up the screen from a “cold
start”. If the TV does not start up on the first try, switch
ON the TV every 2 - 3 seconds until the screen comes
on. Sometimes, it may take 2-5 tries before starting.
Fus e — the inverter comes with fuse/s already installed
and can be changed if it is damaged.
Dual AC Outlets — allows you to power up to two
appliances at the same time.
Televis ion interference
Operating of the power inverter can interfere with
television reception on some channels. If this situation
occurs, the following steps may help to alleviate the
problem.
1. Make sure that the chassis ground lug on the back
of the power inverter is solidly connected to the
ground system of your vehicles.
2. Do not operate high power loads with the power
inverter while watching television.

HE AT DISPE R SAL
The inverter generates heat while it is working. This is
not a malfunction. However, if the inverter gets too hot
while working, it will turn off by itself.
Position the inverter where air flows freely around it to
allow the heat to disperse.
The inverter’s thermal protection prevents it from
