To ensure reliable service, your power inverter must be installed and used properly. Please read the installation
and operating instructions thoroughly prior to installation and use. Pay particular attention to the WARNING
and CAUTION statements in this manual. The CAUTION statements advise against certain conditions and
practices that may result in damage to your inverter. The WARNING statements identify conditions or practices

WARNINGS
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR INJURY
1.
Do not connect to AC distribution wiring. This inverter is NOT grid interactive.
2.
Remove appliance plug from outlet strip or turn off inverter before working on the appliance. Multiple
outlet power strips with switches and circuit breakers only interrupt power to the "hot" receptacle
terminals. For SSW-350-12A & SSW-600-12A, the "Neutral" terminals remain powered with respect to
the "Ground" terminals.
3.
Do not make any electrical connections or disconnections in areas designated as IGNITION PROTECTED.
This includes 12 V DC cigarette plug connections, and terminal connections.
4.
This is not a toy - keep away from children.
5.
DO NOT install object into air vents.
CAUTIONS
1.
The chassis and the input Negative terminal of the inverter are internally connected to the AC Ground.
Hence, the input Negative terminal should be used as the grounding terminal. Do not use with Positive
Grounded Electrical Systems (the majority of modern automobiles, RVs, trucks and boats are Negative
Grounded Electrical Systems).
2.
Observe correct polarity when connecting the DC input terminals of the inverter to the battery. Connect
Positive of the battery to the Positive input connector of the inverter and the Negative of the battery to
the Negative input terminal of the inverter. Reverse polarity connection will result in a blown fuse and
may cause permanent damage to the inverter. Damage due to reverse polarity is not covered under
warranty.
3.
This inverter will not operate high wattage appliances that exceed the output power limit or the surge
power limit.
4.
For SSW-350-12A & SSW-600-12A, grounding the Neutral will cause the inverter to shut down. Hence,
do not connect the Neutral of the AC output receptacles to Ground.
5.
Do not operate this inverter if it is wet.
6.
Do not install in engine compartment – please install in a well ventilated area.
7.
This inverter is not tested for use with medical devices.
