Operation Order - Telefunken TF-PI04 Instruction Manual

Operating the invertor

Operation order

• Plug the lighter socket connection cable of
the invertor to the cigarette lighter socket of
your vehicle.
• Switch on the invertor using the ON/OFF
switch.
• Connect the electrical equipment rated for
AC 220V voltage to the invertor socket.
• Switch on the electrical equipment. To
switch off the invertor repeat the above steps
in reverse order.
Operating while moving
• To operate the invertor, use a cigarette
lighter (cigarette lighter socket) in the car.
• The total load power of devices connected
to the invertor should not exceed 150 watts.
If these recommendations are not observed,
for example, using a splitter or a hub to
connect several devices (phone, tablet,
navigator, DVR, etc.) to a cigarette lighter, a
car fuse may be damaged.
• When the invertor is plugged into the
cigarette lighter socket, you can use the two
additional lighter sockets located on the left
side panel of the invertor.
Instruction manual
Operating while parked
• The engine is off
- As a rule, when the engine is turned off, the
cigarette lighter socket does not work.
However, in some cars the cigarette lighter
can be powered with the car battery. In this
case it should be noted that when operating
the invertor from the car battery, the invertor
reduces the battery charge level, which can
lead to its full discharge.
- The total load power is limited by the car
battery capacity (taking into account its wear).
When the invertor is used for a long time, it is
a good practice to periodically turn on the
engine to compensate for energy losses and
to prevent the battery from completely
draining.
• The engine is idle
- Do not start the car engine with the electric
load connected via the invertor.
- In order to protect the car generator from
overload when choosing the invertor, the
engine power of the car should be taken into
account. (Invertors of more than 600 watts are
advisable to use in cars with an engine volume
of at least 2.0 liters and a battery capacity of at
least 100 a/h.)
(!)
The manufacturer is not responsible for
possible damage to the vehicle's electrical
equipment when using an invertor with
excess load power.
