Operation Order - Telefunken TF-PI02 Instruction Manual

Operating the invertor

Operation order

• Connect the invertor to the cigarette lighter
socket or directly to the 12V car battery
(observing the polarity).
• Switch on the invertor using the ON/OFF
switch.
• Connect the electrical equipment rated for
AC 220V voltage to the invertor socket.
• Switch on the electrical equipment. To
switch off the inverter repeat the above steps
in reverse order.
Operating while moving
• To operate the inverter, use a cigarette
lighter (cigarette lighter socket) in the car.
• The total load power of devices connected
to the invertor should not exceed 150 watts.
If these recommendations are not observed,
for example, using a splitter or a hub to
connect several devices (phone, tablet,
navigator, DVR, etc.) to a cigarette lighter, a
car fuse may be damaged.
Instruction manual
Operating while parked
• The engine is off
- As a rule, when the engine is turned off,
the cigarette lighter socket does not work. In
this case, the invertor connection is possible
directly to the battery using the two included
wires with clamps. It should be noted that
when operating the invertor directly from the
car battery, the invertor reduces the battery
charge level, which can lead to its full
discharge.
- The total load power is limited by the car
battery capacity (taking into account its wear).
When the invertor is used for a long time, it is
a good practice to periodically turn on the
engine to compensate for energy losses and
to prevent the battery from completely
draining.
• The engine is idle
- Do not start the car engine with the electric
load connected via the invertor.
- In order to protect the car generator from
overload when choosing the invertor, the
engine power of the car should be taken into
account. (Invertors of more than 600 watts are
advisable to use in cars with an engine
volume of at least 2.0 liters and a battery
capacity of at least 100 a/h.)
(!)
The manufacturer is not responsible for
possible damage to the vehicle's electrical
equipment when using an invertor with
excess load power.
