this, some interference may occur with your television picture, especially with weak signals. Below are some sugges- tions to try and improve reception.
Make sure the television antenna produces a clear signal under normal operating conditions (i.e., at home plugged into a standard 110V AC wall outlet). Also, ensure that the antenna cable is adequately shielded and of good quality.
Try altering the positions of the inverter, antenna cables, and television power cord. Add an extension cord from the inverter to the TV so as to isolate its power cord and antenna cables from the
Try coiling the television power cord and the input cables running from the 12
Attention: You may hear a "buzzing" sound being emitted from inexpensive sound systems when operated with the inverter. This is due to ineffective filters in the sound system. This problem can only be resolved by purchasing a sound system with a higher quality power supply.
H. | Blown Fuse |
A blown fuse is usually caused by re- verse polarity or a short circuit within the device or equipment being oper- ated.
If the fuse blows, take the inverter to a qualified technician for repair.
Power Source
Your average automobile or marine bat- tery will provide an ample power sup- ply to the inverter for 30 to 45 minutes even when the engine is off. The actual length of time the inverter will function depends on:
1.Age and condition of the battery.
2.Power demand being placed by the equipment being operated with the inverter.
If you decide to use the inverter while the engine is off: turn OFF the device plugged into the inverter before start- ing the engine. Start the engine every hour and let it run for approximately 10 minutes to recharge the battery.
Attention: Although it is not necessary to disconnect the inverter when starting the engine, it may briefly cease to oper- ate as the battery voltage decreases. When the inverter is not supplying power, it draws a very low amperage from the battery. The inverter may be left connected to the battery for up to three hours. It is recommended that the inverter always be disconnected when not in use.
Safety Features
The LED Indicator light will turn from GREEN to RED and the inverter will automatically turn itself off when:
1.The power input from the battery drops to approximately 10 volts. (When the power input drops to approximately 10.5 volts, an alarm will sound for an extended period).
2.The power input from the battery exceeds 15.5 volts.
3.The continuous load demand from the equipment or device being operated exceeds 2000 watts.
