SECTION 1 |
• Be careful when touching bare terminals of capacitors. Capacitors may retain high lethal
voltages even after the power has been removed. Discharge the capacitors before working
on the circuits.
• If AC Grid input is available, it will be bypassed to the AC outlets on the unit even if the ON /
OFF Switch is in OFF condition (LED marked "AC GRID" will be Green BUT LED marked BYPASS
will be OFF). Care should be taken because the AC Outlets will be LIVE in this condition.
!
CAUTION!
Installation environment
• The inverter should be installed indoor only in a well ventilated, cool, dry environment.
• Do not expose to moisture, rain, snow or liquids of any type.
• To reduce the risk of overheating and fire, do not obstruct the suction and discharge openings
of the cooling fans.
• To ensure proper ventilation, do not install in a low clearance compartment.
WARNING!
Preventing fire and explosion hazards.
• Working with the unit may produce arcs or sparks. Thus, the unit should not be used in areas
where there are flammable materials or gases requiring ignition protected equipment. These
areas may include spaces containing gasoline-powered machinery, fuel tanks, and battery
compartments.
WARNING!
Precautions when working with batteries
• Batteries contain very corrosive diluted Sulphuric Acid as electrolyte. Precautions should be
taken to prevent contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
• Batteries generate Hydrogen and Oxygen during charging resulting in evolution of explosive
gas mixture. Care should be taken to ventilate the battery area and follow the battery
manufacturer's recommendations.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame near the batteries.
• Use caution to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool on the battery. It could spark or short
circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could cause an explosion.
• Remove metal items like rings, bracelets and watches when working with batteries. The
batteries can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal
and, thus, cause a severe burn.
• If you need to remove a battery, always remove the ground (Negative) terminal from the
battery first. Make sure that all the accessories are off so that you do not cause a spark.
