Operation
To test (or reset) the GFCI protection:
1.Press the unit’s power switch to turn the inverter On.
2.Plug a test lamp into the AC outlet.
3.Push the TEST button.
Note: The RESET button should pop out and the power should turn Off (the lamp should go out). If the lamp remains lit, or if the RESET button does not pop out, the GFCI may not be functioning.
If the GFCI trips by itself at any time, reset it and perform the preceding test.
