Connecting Inverter Cables - DieHard 28.71495 Operator's Manual

IMPORTANT: If you are using the power inverter to operate a battery
charger, monitor the temperature of the battery charger for about 10
minutes. If the battery charger becomes abnormally warm, disconnect it
from the inverter immediately.
NOTE: You can use an extension cord from the inverter to the device without
significantly decreasing the power being generated by the inverter. For best
operating results, the extension cord should be no longer than 50 feet.
The inverter and power source must be in the OFF mode.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you connect your inverter to a 12 volt power supply only.
INVERTER CONNECTION:
1. Locate the positive and negative plastic terminals located on the back of
the inverter and remove the terminal caps completely.
2. Install the positive (red) cable ring lug onto the positive (red) terminal screw.
Install the negative (black) cable ring lug onto the negative (black) terminal
screw. Tighten each terminal so that the cable cannot come loose.
CONNECTING INVERTER CABLE TO A VEHICLE (100 watts maximum):
1. Remove the cigarette lighter from its outlet.
2. Push the 12 volt power plug firmly into the outlet.
CONNECTING INVERTER CABLES TO 12V BATTERY OR 12V POWER SOURCE:
1. Keep hands, hair, clothing and jewelry clear of battery terminals.
2. Wear eye protection and protective clothing.
3. Connect the positive (red) inverter terminal cable to the power source
positive (+) or battery terminal. Make sure the connection is secure.
4. Connect the negative (black) inverter terminal cable to the power source
negative (-) or battery terminal. Make sure the connection is secure.
5. To disconnect the inverter, reverse the above steps.
NOTE: The internal speaker may make a brief "beep" when the inverter is
being connected to or disconnected from the 12V power source.
CAUTION: Failure to make the correct connections will result in blown fuses
and permanent damage to the inverter.
