SAFE — Do not use the inverter near flammable materials or in any locations that may
accumulate flammable fumes or gases. This is an electrical appliance that can briefly
spark when electrical connections are made or broken.
CAUTION
Rechargeable Devices
Certain rechargeable devices do not operate well from a modified sine
wave inverter. They only operate properly from a standard household
outlet, which provides a pure sine wave. Therefore, the manufacturer
recommends that these types of devices be operated from a standard
household outlet only, not from the inverter.
This problem does not occur with most battery-operated equipment.
Most of these devices use a separate charger or transformer that is
plugged into an AC receptacle. The Power Inverter is easily capable of
running most chargers and transformers.
Notes on Using the Remote Control (sold separately)
For ease of use, Vector offers (as a separate item) a Remote Control specifically
designed for this line of MAXX SST inverters. The inverter ON/OFF Switch must be
in the OFF position when connecting the Remote Control to the unit or the Remote
Control will not operate. Once the unit has been turned ON using the Remote Control,
inverter operation will continue to be controlled through the Remote Control. Turn the
inverter OFF before disconnecting the Remote Control.
For more information about attaching and using the Remote Control, please refer to
the Remote Control User's Manual.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Storage
1. Ideal storage temperature range is 50-68°F (10-20°C).
2. Store and use the inverter in a cool, dry place with adequate ventilation.
3. Avoid locations that are exposed to heating units, radiators, direct sunlight or
excessive humidity or dampness.
Fuse Replacement
This inverter is equipped with multiple internal fuses. Normally, these fuses will not
"blow" unless there is a serious problem inside the unit. Internal fuses are
replaceable; however, only trained personnel should attempt fuse
replacement. If the unit is damaged during fuse replacement, the warranty may be
voided. The manufacturer recommends contacting Technical Support, toll-free, at
(866) 584-5504.
Preventive Maintenance
Inverters require minimal maintenance. For optimum performance, the manufacturer
recomments periodically performing the following preventive maintenance.
1. Turn OFF the inverter using the front panel ON/OFF Power Switch.
2. Remove the DC power fuse.
3. Check and tighten all electrical connections, including the ground.
4. Using a non-metallic vacuum cleaner hose, vacuum the air slots and fan area.
5. Clean the outside of the unit using a damp (not wet) cloth.
6. Wipe unit surfaces thoroughly with a dry cloth.
7. Re-insert the fuse and resume operation.
