1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT: READ AND SAVE THIS OWNER’S MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. WARNING: Shock, fire, and heat hazard. Risk of injury to persons Do not expose the 2000W Pure Sine Inverter to rain, snow, spray, or bilge water. To reduce risk of fire hazard, do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
Page 5 Precautions When Working with Batteries WARNING: Explosion or fire hazard Follow all instructions published by the battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of the equipment in which the battery is installed to reduce the risk of battery explosion. Working in the vicinity of lead-acid batteries is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal operation.
Page 6: Introduction
Remove all metal items, such as rings, bracelets, and watches when working with lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries produce a short circuit current high enough to weld metal to skin, causing a severe burn. Have someone within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
Page 7 Quality Power The 2000W Pure Sine Inverter is a professional-quality, mid-range inverter designed to handle a variety of applications including compact microwaves, TVs, VCRs, coffee makers, lamps, and small power tools. The 2000W Pure Sine Inverter provides optimal continuous power (1800 W ), making it ideal for large single loads, intermittent loads, or multiple smaller loads.
Page 8: Features
A convenient USB port powers all modern electronic products. Comprehensive Protection The 2000W Pure Sine Inverter is equipped with numerous protection features to guarantee safe and trouble-free operation: Low battery Alerts you if the battery has become discharged to voltage alarm 11 V or lower.
Page 9 Materials List Your 2000W Pure Sine Inverter package includes these items: • 2000W Pure Sine Inverter unit • Owner’s Manual • Remote control panel mounting brackets • The 2000W Pure Sine Inverter can also be installed with a remote ON/OFF switch that comes with a 20’ (6 m) cable If any of these materials are missing or are unsatisfactory in any way, please call the toll-free helpline: 1-800-222-5381.

Page 13 you need it and that your batteries remain in top condition. Inadequate charging will degrade system performance and the wrong type of charger will reduce battery life. For a list of Battery Chargers, please call the toll-free helpline: 1-800-222-5381. Choose a Location CAUTION: Risk of inverter damage.
Page 14 Installation Description Don’t allow water or other liquids to drop or splash on the unit. Ambient air temperature should be between Cool -4°F and 104°F (-20°C - 40°C) (the cooler the better within this range). Leave at least 2” (5 cm) of clearance around the Ventilated unit for airflow.
Page 15 Mount the inverter 1. Select an appropriate mounting location and orientation. The unit can be oriented in any way, such as: • Horizontally on a vertical surface or • On or under a horizontal surface. WARNING DC connections should NOT point up or down. 2.
Page 16 CAUTION: Risk of inverter damage due to reverse polarity. A reverse polarity connection (positive to negative) will blow a fuse in the inverter and may permanently damage the unit. Damage caused by a reverse polarity connection is not covered by your warranty. Attach the connector on the positive cable to the positive battery terminal.

5. OPERATION Turning the Inverter On and Off The power switch on the inverter’s front panel turns the control circuit in the 2000W Pure Sine Inverter on and off. To toggle the inverter on and off from its front panel: Press the inverter’s power switch button (for half a second) to turn on the inverter (from off).
Page 18 inverter switched on for a few days. If you are not planning to recharge your battery within a week or so, switch the inverter off. Reading the Front Panel Indicators Indicator LEDs If the Green LED is on, it indicates that the unit is on. Under normal operating conditions, the AC outlets and USB port have power.

Page 21 Inverter Loads The 2000W Pure Sine Inverter will operate many AC loads within its power rating. However, some appliances and equipment may be difficult to operate. Please see “Problem Loads” below carefully. USB Loads A lot of USB-powered devices such as portable music (MP3) players, mobile phones, and video game players can be charged and powered safely via the standard USB port.
Page 22: Troubleshooting
Battery Charging Frequency When possible, recharge your batteries when they are about 50% discharged or earlier. This gives them a much longer life cycle than recharging when they are almost completely discharged. Routine Maintenance Minimal maintenance is required to keep your 2000W Pure Sine Inverter operating properly.
