Resistive loads are the easiest for the inverter to run; however, it will not run larger resistive loads (such as electric stoves and heaters),
which require far more wattage than the inverter can deliver. Inductive loads (such as TVs and stereos) require more current to operate
than do resistive loads of the same wattage rating.
CAUTION: RECHARGEABLE DEVICES
• Certain rechargeable devices are designed to be charged by plugging them directly into an AC receptacle. These devices may damage
the inverter or the charging circuit.
• When using a rechargeable device, monitor its temperature for the initial ten minutes of use to determine if it produces excessive heat.
• If excessive heat is produced, this indicates the device should not be used with this inverter.
• This problem does not occur with most of the battery-operated equipment. Most of these devices use a separate charger or transformer
that is plugged into an AC receptacle.
• The inverter is capable of running most chargers and transformers.
Protective Features
The inverter monitors the following conditions:
Low internal battery voltage: The inverter will automatically shut down when the battery voltage drops too low, as this can harm the
battery.
High internal battery voltage: The inverter will automatically shut down when the battery voltage is too high, as this can harm the unit.
Thermal shutdown protection: The inverter will automatically shut down when the unit becomes overheated.
Overload/short circuit protection: The inverter will automatically shut down when an overload or short circuit occurs.
IMPORTANT NOTES: The inverter power indicator will light solid red when the unit is functioning properly. The inverter power indicator
will flash red to indicate that one of the above fault conditions is present before automatic shutdown occurs. Should this occur, take the
following steps:
1. Disconnect all appliances from the unit.
2. Press the inverter power switch to turn the inverter off (O).
3. Allow the unit to cool down for several minutes.
4. Make sure the combined rating for all appliances plugged into the unit is 200 watts or lower and that appliance cord(s) and plug(s)
are not damaged.
5. Assure there is adequate ventilation around the unit before proceeding.
