•Insert the 12 V vehicle plug into a vehicle recep- tacle.
Note:
Due to high crossover resistances heating of the plug in connector can result when using the cables with a 12 V vehicle plug. Therefore when operating with high loads use the con- nection cable with the connection terminals.
Connection to an automobile battery
•Loosen the red screw on the power inverter as much as is needed for you to be able to place the red cable shoe of the red cable with the connection terminal with the opening under the screw and washer.
•Turn the red screw so tight that the cable shoe can no longer become unattached.
•Loosen the black screw on the power inverter as much as is needed for you to be able to place the black cable shoe of the black cable with the connection terminal with the opening under the screw and washer.
•Turn the black screw so tight that the cable shoe can no longer become unattached.
•First connect the red terminal clamp to the plus pole of the automobile battery and then the black terminal clamp to the minus pole of the battery.
Attention!
Do not use the power inverter in vehicles who- se plus pole is connected to the vehicle body and/or the chassis.
The positive pole must be inside the receptacle. Do not use the power inverter in vehicles with positive earth receptacles. Otherwise the de- vice will be damaged.
Connection and operation of a load/device
Attention!
Before connecting a load/device to the power in- verter make sure that the on/off switch on the device is in the position 0.
Make sure that the power of the load/device does not exceed the maximum continuous load of the power inverter.
•Insert the plug of the connecting load/the device to be operated into the 220 - 240 V socket of the power inverter.
Attention!
Do not switch on the load/device to be operated yet!
•Switch the power inverter on by moving the on/ off switch to the position I. If the power inverter is functioning properly the operation LED/Over- load indicator will light up green.
•Now switch on the load/device to be operated. When switched on a short signal tone can be heard.
Note:
If a signal tone can be heard and the operation LED/ Overload indicator lights up red the input voltage is too low or the power of the load/de- vice connected to the power inverter is too high.
