D.Connecting inverter cables
The inverter and the power source must be in the OFF mode.
Inverter Connection:
1.Locate the positive and negative plastic terminals located on the left side of the inverter. Using a flathead or standard screwdriver, unscrew the positive (red) and negative (black) terminal screws just enough to be able to insert the bare end of the connector cables.
2.Insert the bare end of the positive (red) cable into the positive terminal and bare end of the negative (black) cable into the negative terminal. Tighten each terminal screw so the cable cannot come loose.
Connecting inverter cables to 12V battery or 12V power source
1.Keep hands, hair, clothing and jewelry clear of battery terminals.
2.Wear protective eye (safety glasses) and clothing protection.
3.Connect the negative (black) inverter terminal cable to the power source or negative
Note: Failure to make the correct con- nections will result in blown fuses and permanent damage to the inverter.

To Turn ON:
1.Push the rocker switch, located on the right side, to the “ON” (I) position. The LED indicator light should glow GREEN verifying the inverter is receiving power and can deliver power to your device. (A brief audio alarm may sound or red LED may flash. This is normal.)
2.Turn on the power source or device to be powered.
Note: If more than two devices are to be powered, start one device at a time to avoid a power surge and overloading the inverter. The surge load of each device should not exceed 2000 watts.
You can use an extension cord from the inverter to the device without sig- nificantly decreasing the power being generated by the inverter. For best operating results, the extension cord should be no longer than 50 feet.
To Turn OFF:
1.Push the rocker switch, located on the right side, to the “OFF” (O) position.
2.Turn off the power source and the device.
3.Disconnect inverter from power source and device.
4.Wait for the inverter to be cool to the touch before disconnecting it from the power source.
