Avoid getting electrolyte on your skin or clothes. It is acidic and can cause burns. If battery
•
acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with water. Baking soda neutralizes lead
acid battery electrolyte. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, immediately flood your eyes with
running cold water for at least 20 minutes and get medical attention immediately. Eye
protection is therefore recommended.
Always keep metal objects or other materials that can short circuit the terminals of the
•
battery or the inverter securely away.
Power-o the device before making or breaking the connections to the battery.
•
Observe technical instructions of the seller or the manufacturer of your battery.
•
Check if all connections are tight and clean. Loose or dirty connections could result in
•
overheating, electrical sparks and fire. Use terminal grease where required.
Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of the battery.
•
Never try to charge a damaged or frozen battery.
•
Do not place the device directly on top of the battery or vice versa or on a surface
•
constructed from combustible material.
Read your car´s owner's manual. Some vehicle manufacturers may have special requirements
•
before charging or discharging the vehicle´s battery (e.g. fuses that have to be removed or
certain security demands).
Environment Environment
Environment Environment
Only use the product in environments from 0°C ~ 45°C.
•
Do not operate the product in damp, wet or dusty environments: Never expose the inverter
•
to rain or snow. Doing so may result in damage to the inverter or other equipment installed in
the system or result in electric shock or fire. Do not operate the unit in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Do not put
batteries, or anything that should be protected from sparks around the inverter. Doing so
may result in fire or explosion.
To avoid heat accumulation, do not cover the device. To prevent overheating , ensure that air
•
inlets and ventilation is not obstructed. Do not expose the device to a heat source (such as
direct sunlight or heating). Avoid additional heating of the device in this way.
Electrical Cables Electrical Cables
Electrical Cables Electrical Cables
If cables have to be fed through metal holes or other walls with sharp edges, use ducts or
•
cable bushings to prevent damage.
Do not lay cables which are loose or bent next to electrically conductive material (metal).
•
Do not pull on the cables.
•
Avoid to lay 230 V AC mains cable and 12 V DC cables in the same duct.
•
Prevent all cables from being stepped on, tripped over, or being damaged by e.g. sharp edges
•
or hot surfaces.
