6 Inverter Operation

1.When properly connected to a 12 V outlet, the light will glow blue, indicating the inverter is ready.

2.Plug the product(s) you want to operate into the AC outlet or USB port and switch them on (if necessary).

Operating Guidelines

As the battery is used, voltage begins to fall. When the XPower inverter senses that the voltage at its DC input has dropped to 10.5 V, the inverter automatically shuts down and the light glows red, indicating a fault. This prevents the battery from being damaged. Turn off any devices that the XPower inverter is powering.

Important: Vehicle batteries are designed to provide brief periods of very high current needed for engine starting. They are not intended for constant deep discharge. Regularly operating the XPower inverter from a vehicle battery until low-voltage shutdown occurs will shorten the life of the battery.
