    4. Troubleshooting guide: Problems and Symptoms Possible Cause Solutions “No AC Power Output” STATUS illuminates the red LED Over input voltage. Check input voltage. a. Blinking fast ( OVP ) Reduce input voltage. Low input voltage. Recharge battery. b. Blinking slow. ( UVP ) Check connections and cable.
  • Page 30: Maintenance

    5. Maintenance: Very little maintenance is required to keep your inverter operating properly. You should clean the exterior of the unit periodically with a damp cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and dirt. At the same time, tighten the screws on the DC input terminals. 6.
