IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNINGS

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR INJURY:

• Do not connect to AC distribution wiring.

• Remove appliance plug from outlet strip or turn off inverter before working on the appliance. Multiple outlet power strips with switches and circuit breakers only interrupt power to the “hot” receptacle terminals. The “neutral” terminals remain powered with respect to the “ground” terminals.

• NOT approved for ignition protected areas. Do not make any electrical connections or disconnections in areas designated as IGNITION PROTECTED.

• This is not a toy — keep away from children.

• This equipment employs components that tend to produce arcs or sparks. DO NOT install in compartments containing batteries or flammable materials.

• Use this unit in properly ventilated areas ONLY.

• Do not open — there are no user-serviceable parts inside.

• Do not insert foreign objects into the outlet.

• Do not expose the unit to water, rain or snow.

CAUTIONS

• Always inspect battery supply connections and cables to ensure they are tight and that cable insulation is not damaged.

• Do not use with positive ground electrical systems*. Reverse polarity connection will result in a blown fuse and may cause permanent damage to the inverter and will void warranty.

*The majority of modern automobiles, RVs, trucks and boats are negative ground.

• This inverter will not operate high wattage appliances or equipment that produces heat, such as hair dryers, microwave ovens and toasters.

• Grounding the Neutral will cause the inverter to shut down. Do not operate this inverter if it is wet. Do not install in engine compartment — install in a well ventilated area.

• This inverter has not been tested for use with medical devices.

• Do not attempt to install or operate this unit while operating a motor vehicle.

Important Cable Information

Substantial power loss and reduced battery operating time results from inverters installed with cables that are not able to supply full power. Symptoms of low battery power can result from cables that are either excessively long or an insufficient gauge. Marine installations are also subjected to vibration and stresses that exceed those of other mobile installations. Therefore, the installer/operator should be especially aware of the requirements to maintain secure, tight, water-resistant electrical connections and to provide for strain relief for DC cables and appliance wiring. Cable insulation must be the appropriate type for the environment.
