CAUTION: This adjustment should be made only by a qualified marine electrician. Special
tools and procedures are required for accurate adjustment of output voltage. Consult with
the battery manufacturer for charging voltage recommendations before making this adjust-
ment. Over or undercharging will result in battery damage.

INVERTER OPERATION
A) Start-Up/Operation
When all battery and AC wiring has been correctly installed, check for proper operation as
follows:
1) With no external AC applied, turn the power switch on the front of the unit to "On".
The "Inverter" L.E.D. should illuminate.
Note: If the remote panel is used, the power switch on that panel must also be turned
on for the inverter to operate. In addition, every L.E.D. indication on the remote panel
should be identical to the indication on the front panel of the inverter. Verify that this
is so during start-up tests and initial operation.
2) Plug an AC appliance into each of the two receptacles (outlets) on the front of the
inverter and verify proper operation. If the appliance does not operate, the black GFCI
test button may have been inadvertently pushed during installation. Press the red
reset button and the appliance should then operate.
3) Check the proper hard-wire output (if used) by plugging the appliance into a recep-
tacle which is fed by the AC distribution system.
4) Apply external (shorepower or generator) AC to the input of the inverter. After a
delay of approximately 5 seconds the internal automatic transfer switch should acti-
vate and the "External Power" L.E.D. should illuminate.
5) Remove the external AC source. The automatic transfer switch should activate
immediately, and the "Inverter" L.E.D. should again illuminate.
Having completed this initial test the external AC source may be reapplied and all inverter/
charger functions should then be operational with no further attention required, other than
occasional status checks, as desired.
A Note Regarding Use with Microwave Ovens
Because the inverter produces a quasi-sine rather than true sine wave output, microwave
ovens will typically cook more slowly using the inverter than if operating on utility power.
This is normal, and some experimentation may be necessary at first to determine correct
cooking times.
