Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT: READ AND SAVE THIS OWNER’S GUIDE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

This chapter contains important safety instructions for the Freedom HF Inverter/Charger (Freedom HF). Each time, before using the Freedom HF, READ ALL instructions and cautionary markings on or provided with the inverter/charger, the batteries, and all appropriate sections of this guide.

NOTE: The Freedom HF contains no user-serviceable parts. See Warranty Card for guidance.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

•Do not expose the Freedom HF to rain, snow, spray, or bilge water. This inverter/charger is designed for marine applications only when additional drip protection is installed in certain orientations. See the installation guide for information.

•Do not operate the inverter/charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, has cracks or openings in the enclosure including if the fuse cover has been lost, damaged, or will not close, or otherwise damaged in any other way.

•Do not disassemble the inverter/charger. Internal capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected.

•Disconnect both AC and DC power from the inverter/charger before attempting any maintenance or cleaning or working on any circuits connected to the inverter/charger. See note below.

•Do not operate the inverter/charger with damaged or substandard wiring. Make sure that all wiring is in good condition and is not undersized.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

NOTE: Turning off the inverter/charger using the on/off switch on the front panel will not reduce an electrical shock hazard.
