2.Mount to secure surface using mounting hardware that is corrosion resistant (not included).
Mounting Hardware
The inverter can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
Connecting Cables
•
Power wire and wiring are very important to the performance of the inverter. Because the inverter has a low voltage, high current input, low resistance wiring is essential between the battery and inverter. This is so it can deliver the maximum amount of energy to the load. Only use the cables provided with your power inverter.

1. Turn the On/Off Switch on the inverter to the off position. If the power source is a DC power supply, switch it off as well.
Connecting Cables
Installation
2.Connect cable to the Power Input Terminals on right side panel of the inverter. The red terminal is positive (+) and the black terminal is negative

3.Connect cable to your vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket.
Connect Power Source
NOTE If the inverter is to be used at levels above 150 watts for extended periods of time, a direct connection to the battery is recommended. Do not use the cigarette cord for loads higher than 150 watts. Please contact your local dealer or customer assistance for the proper cord for direct to battery connections.
CAUTION Reverse polarity connections (positive to negative) will blow inverter fuses and may permanently damage the unit. Such damage
is not covered by the warranty.
CAUTION Remove any jewelry (watch, ring, etc.). Be careful not to short circuit the battery with any metallic object (wrench, etc.).
