GPSW-1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 6.0 Operating limits 6.1 Power output Some induction motors used in refrigerators, freezers, pumps, and other motor- operated equipment require very high surge currents to start. The inverter may not be able to start some of these motors even though their rated current draw is within the power rating of inverter.
GPSW-1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 7.0 Troubleshooting 7.1 Common problems Television interference: Operation of the power inverter can interfere with television reception on some channels. If this situation occurs, the following steps may help to alleviate the problem: Make sure that the chassis ground lug on the back of the power inverter is solidly connected to the ground system of your vehicle, boat or home.
