Operation

Thoroughly read and understand all information provided in this
Owner's Manual before operating this power inverter.

PREPARING FOR OPERATION

  P ower inverter produces powerful voltage that can cause death or
great physical harm.
• NEVER operate in rain or snow, set on wet surfaces, immerse in liquid, or use in marine
applications.
• NEVER place the power inverter near the vehicle's heat vent or in direct sunlight as this
prevents proper cooling of the power inverter.
• ALWAYS use the power inverter where there is adequate ventilation.
• NEVER block ventilation slots.
• NEVER operate the power inverter near fumes or gases (such as the cabin of a gasoline
power boat or near propane tanks) or in an enclosed area that contains lead-acid batteries
for automotive use. This type of battery emits explosive hydrogen gas which can be ignited
by sparks.
• NEVER operate the power inverter in areas with high levels of dirt, dust, or debris.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The power inverter should be kept in areas that are:
• Dry - Do not allow water or other liquids to come in contact with the power inverter.
• Ambient - During operation, temperature should be between 32° and 104° F (0° - 40° C).
• Ventilated - During operation leave at least a 2" clearance around the power inverter for air
flow and ensure the ventilation openings are not obstructed.
• Clean - Avoid environments with high levels of dirt, dust, or debris.
• Secure - Keep the power inverter in a location where it will not be dropped, exposed to
direct sunlight or heating units, or placed in areas of high humidity or dampness. Keep out
of reach of children.
