Operating Tips; Care And Maintenance - DeWalt DXAEPI140 Instruction Manual

CAUTION – To reduce the risk of property damage: Remember to
turn the inverter off and disconnect it from any power source when it
is not in use. Also remember to turn off the accessory outlet switch to
avoid draining's the vehicle's battery.
Mounting the unit by Mounting Clip
The unit can be mounted on any flat, secure surface, especially inside
the vehicle, by installing the mounting clip located at the back of unit.
1. Gently slide the mounting clip off the back of the inverter.
2. Mount the mounting clip with two supplied KA3x10 screws or
the two supplied pieces of double-sided tape on any flat, secure
surface.
3. To attach the inverter to the mounting clip, slide the unit into the
mounting clip until you hear a "click" indicating the unit is secured
in place.
4. To detach the unit, gently slide it off the mounting clip.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of product damage:
• Only use the mounting clip for mounting the inverter. The mounting
clip is not intended to support additional weight. Do not attach to or
hang anything from the mounted inverter.
• When disconnecting an appliance from the mounted inverter, use
one hand to hold the mounted inverter in place and gently unplug
the appliance with the other hand. Otherwise, the inverter could be
unseated from the mounting and fall.
• Always gently slide the inverter off the mounting clip. Forcing the
inverter in any way could damage the locking mechanism.

Operating Tips

The inverter should only be operated in locations that are:
DRY — Do not allow water or other liquids to come into contact with
the inverter.
COOL — Surrounding air temperature should ideally be 10-20°C (50-
68°F). Keep the inverter away from direct sunlight, when possible.
WELL-VENTILATED — Keep the area surrounding the inverter clear
to ensure free air circulation around the unit. Do not place items on or
over the inverter during operation. The unit will shut down if the internal
temperature gets too hot. The inverter will auto-reset after it cools down.
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.

Care and Maintenance

STORAGE
1. Ideal storage temperature range is 0-35°C (32-104°F).
2. Store and use the inverter in a cool, dry place with adequate
ventilation for all-around air circulation.
3. Avoid locations that are exposed to heating units, radiators, direct
sunlight, or excessive humidity or dampness.
FUSE REPLACEMENT
If the inverter is overloaded, and the blue LED is not lit, the internal
12 amp fuse may be blown. To replace the fuse:
1. Unscrew the flange of the plug (counterclockwise).
2. Remove the end contact, flange and fuse.
3. Inspect the fuse to see if it is good or blown.
4. Replace with a new 12 amp fuse, if needed.
5. Carefully reassemble the fuse, end contact and flange. Do not
overtighten the flange (clockwise).
