OPERATION

Note:

•Loose connections can result in a severe decrease in voltage which may cause damage to the wires and insulation.

•Failure to make proper connection between the inverter and the power source will result in reverse polarity. Reverse polarity will blow the internal fuses in the inverter and may cause permanent damage to the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity is not covered under the Whistler warranty.

•Making the connection between the Positive (+) terminals may cause a spark as a result of current flowing to the capacitors in the inverter. This is a normal occurrence. Due to the potential for sparking, however, it is extremely important that both the inverter and the 12 volt battery be well removed from any possible source of flammable fumes or gases.Failure to heed this warning could result in fire or explosion.

6.Run a ground from the Ground Lug Terminal at the rear of the inverter to a proper grounding point using the shortest practical length of 18 AWG wire. Selection of the grounding point will depend on where you are using the inverter. The ground wire may be connected to the chassis of your vehicle or to the grounding system in your boat or to the earth* if you are operating the inverter in a remote location. Before connecting the ground, make certain that the inverter is turned off. Operating the inverter without properly

grounding it may result in electrical shock.

*This ground can’t be the same ground as the AC ground.

OPERATION

7.Confirm that the equipment or appliance to be operated is turned off. Plug the equipment or appliance into one of the AC receptacles on the front panel of the the inverter.

8.Turn the inverter to the ON (I) position. Turn on the equipment or appliance.

9.Plug the USB powered device into the inverter’s USB power port.

Note:

•The audible alarm may make a momentary “chirp” when the inverter is turned OFF (O). The same alarm may also sound when the inverter is being connected to or disconnected from the 12 volt power source.

•The use of an extension cord from the inverter to the appliance or equipment being operated will decrease the power being delivered to the load. For best operating results, the extension cord should be no more than 50 feet long.
