120 VAC is present. This Converter/Charger is designed to convert 120 VAC to 12 VDC. It also provides low voltage
power for charging on-board 12 VDC batteries. The Converter/Charger is a "switch mode" type and is designed to be
maintenance-free with no user serviceable components. The Converter/Charger power output is "current limiting" by
design.
NEVER store electrical devices in compartments where flammable liquids (such as gasoline) exist.
DO NOT mount/install unit in compartments designed for storage of batteries of flammable liquids.
DISCONNECT DC POWER. Disconnect the battery POS (+) wire at the battery end before connecting this Converter/Charger
to any vehicle/device wiring.
LOCATION. The mounting location may be on any interior (out of direct weather) surface. Location chosen must be accessible
after installation. When mounted inside a cabinet, the cabinet must be large enough to allow dissipation of heated air. Make
sure that there is a minimum of 1" (one inch) free air space at each end of the unit so that cooling air can move through the unit
properly. AVOID foreign contaminants such as dirt, metal particles or moisture.
MOUNTING. Flanges with holes are provided for ease of mounting using standard fasteners. Confirm that the surface that the
converter is mounted to is solid and will hold the weight (6 lbs) during vehicle operation.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS. A 120 VAC receptacle needs to be located within 36 inches of the Converter/Charger to
supply power. Electrical consideration should also be given to mounting near the locations of the batteries and the 12-volt DC
distribution panel.
