Electrical Connections

The Inverter comes with a cigarette lighter plug adapter for connec- tion to the power source. The tip of the plug is positive and the side contact is negative. Connect the plug to the cigarette lighter socket by pushing in firmly to insure proper contact.

The majority of modern automobiles, RVs, and trucks are negative ground. Do not use the Inverter with positive ground vehicle electri- cal systems.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE WITH POSITIVE GROUND VEHICLE SYSTEMS.

CAUTION: CONNECT DIRECTLY TO POWER SOURCE WHEN OPERATING ABOVE 100 WATTS

Most cigarette lighter currents are fused between 10-15 amps. Thus, connection of the 150W Inverter using the cigarette lighter plug adapter is suitable for operating the inverter at power outputs up to approximately 100 watts.

If the inverter is to be used at power levels above 100 watts, direct connection to the power source is recommended using a hardwire con- nection.
