You can use an extension cord from the inverter to the device without significantly decreasing the power being generated by the inverter. For best operating results, the extension cord should be no longer than 50 feet.

This inverter uses a nonsinusoidal waveform. Therefore, we

do not recommend you use it to power the following devices:

1.Switch Mode Power Supplies;

2.Linear Power Supplies;

3.Class 2 Transformers;

4.Line Filter Capacitors;

5.Shaded Pole Motors;

6.Fan Motors;

7.Microwave Ovens;

8.Fluorescent and High Intensity Lamps (with a Ballast); and

9.Transformerless Battery Chargers.

Doing so, may cause the device to run warmer or overheat.

5.11Powering a 120V AC Device To operate a 120V AC device:

1.Ensure the battery clips are securely on the storage holders.

2.Open the protective cover of the AC power outlet on the front panel of the Instant Power™.

3.Make sure the 120V AC device to be operated is turned OFF.

4.Plug the 120V AC device into the AC power outlet, and turn the Inverter Switch to the ON position.

5.Turn the device on.

6.If the device does not operate properly when first connected to the inverter, push the inverter rocker switch ON, OFF, and ON again in quick succession. If this procedure is not successful, it is likely that the inverter does not have the required capacity to operate the device intended.

7.Charge the Instant Power™ as soon as possible after each use.

Risk of electric shock.

Incorrect operation of your inverter may result in damage and personal injury. The inverter output is 120V AC and can shock or electrocute the same as any ordinary household AC wall outlet.

NOTE: The maximum continuous load is 400 watts. Do not use the inverter with a product that draws more than 400 watts, as this may cause damage to the inverter and the product.
