IMPORTANT SAFETY CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
CAUTION: Inverters produce hazardous voltages. To avoid risk of harm or fire the unit must
be properly installed. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not remove the inverter
housing.
CAUTION: The inverter should not be mounted in a location that may be exposed to rain or
spray.
CAUTION: The inverter should not be installed in a zero-clearance enclosure.
CAUTION: Damage to the inverter will occur if correct polarity is not observed when installing
the DC input cables.
CAUTION: Damage to inverter will occur if an external AC source is applied to the inverter's
AC output socket or its hard-wire AC output.
CAUTION: The inverter contains a circuit breaker and capacitor that may produce a spark.
Do not mount in a confined battery or gas compartment.
CAUTION: Working in the vicinity of lead-acid batteries is dangerous. Batteries generate
explosive gasses during operation. There is a risk of acid exposure. There is also a risk of
high current discharge from shorting the battery that can cause fire and explosion.
CAUTION: UL and ABYC specify that the DC input shall be fused no farther than 18" from
the battery. This is the responsibility of the installer.
CAUTION: Be sure both the inverter and, if used, the external AC input circuit breaker or
fuse are turned "OFF" during installation.
WARNING: The inverter/charger is not ignition protected so it must not be located in
an area where ignition protected equipment is required.
EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS TO THE INVERTER/CHARGER SHALL COMPLY WITH UL
RECOMMENDATIONS AND/OR UNITED STATES COAST GUARD ELECTRICAL REGULA-
TIONS (33CFR183, SUB-PART I)
THE INSTALLATION AND PROTECTION OF VESSEL WIRING ASSOCIATED WITH IN-
VERTER/CHARGERS SHALL COMPLY WITH ABYC STANDARDS E-8) AC ELECTRICAL
SYSTEMS ON BOATS, E-9) DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ON BOATS, A-20) BATTERY
CHARGING DEVICES AND A-25) INVERTERS.
