INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
• Place the Inverter on a dry, level, nonflammable stable surface. Ensure that it has adequate
ventilation and will not overheat. Ambient air temperature should be between 30°F and 105°F.
• There should be at least two inches of clearance around the inverter for proper airflow.
• Select DC Power Input Cables that meet or exceed the requirements listed in the
"Specifications Table" of this Instruction Manual. Route the DC Cables in a safe manner
and attach them to the Lugs on the back of the Inverter.
• Connect the Negative DC Power Cable to the 12V power source.
• Connect the Positive DC Cable to the 12V power source. A fuse must be installed on the
Positive Cable as close to the DC power source as possible. See the "Specifications Table"
in this Instruction Manual for the fuse size.
• The Power Inverter has a Ground Terminal on the Rear Panel marked
The Ground Terminal must be connected to the ground, which will vary depending on where
the Power Inverter is installed. In a vehicle, connect the Ground Terminal to the chassis of
the vehicle. In a boat, connect it to the boat's ground system. In a fixed location, connect the
Ground Terminal to earth.
• The optional remote switch can be connected to the remote jack.
