Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
This manual contains important instructions and warnings
that should be followed during the installation, operation
and storage of all Tripp Lite Inverters. Failure to heed these
warnings may affect warranty.
CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electric shock
and burn from high short-circuit current. Observe proper
precautions. There are no user serviceable parts inside
the inverter. Do not open. Do not short or bridge the
battery terminals with any object.
Location Warnings
• Install your Inverter (whether for a mobile or stationary application)
in a location or compartment that minimizes exposure to heat, dust,
direct sunlight and moisture.
• Although your Inverter is moisture resistant, it is NOT waterproof.
Flooding the unit with water will cause it to short circuit and could
cause personal injury due to electric shock. Never immerse the
unit, and avoid any area where standing water might accumulate.
Mounting should be in the driest location available.
• Leave a minimum of 20 inches (51 cm) clearance at front and
back of the Inverter for proper ventilation. The heavier the load
of connected equipment, the more heat will be generated by the
unit. Any compartment that contains the Inverter must be properly
ventilated with adequate outside airflow to avoid overheating the
Inverter.
• Ambient temperature should be kept between -5°F and 77°F
(-20°C and 25°C).
• Do not install the Inverter directly near magnetic storage media, as
this may result in data corruption.
