BATTERY USE

ξTo avoid over-discharging your vehicle’s battery, you should run your engine for 10-20 minutes to recharge the vehicle’s battery after 2-3 hours of operating the inverter.

ξIf you choose to connect the inverter directly to your battery terminals, it is important to connect with right

polarity (connect Պ from inverter to Պ of battery

terminal and connect Ջ from inverter to Ջ of battery terminal)

CAUTION:

THE FOLLOWINGS OPERATION WILL DAMAGE AND VOID THE WARRANTY OF THE INVERTER:

ξREVERSE POLARITY BY CONNECTING THE WIRES TO THE INCORRECT TERMINALS.

ξCONNECTING THE BATTERY CHARGER TO REPLENISH BATTERY WITHOUT DISCONNECTING THE INVERTER FIRST.

ξCONNECTING THE INVERTER TO POWER SOURCE GREATER THAN 15-VOLT DC.

ξOPERATING THE INVERTER AND BATTERY IN OR AROUND WATER.

MEASURING THE AC VOLTAGE

The output waveform of the AC inverter is a MODIFIED SINEWAVE. To measure the AC output voltage, you must use a TRUE RMS VOLTMETER.

SAFETY PRECAUTION

Do not open the case of the inverter. The high voltage inside the unit is the same type of power as your electrical outlets at home.

Do not let the cord of the inverter or any appliance’s cord get wet.

Do not operate the inverter in or around water. The voltage of the unit makes electrical shock hazard if operated in wet conditions.

Do not connect the AC inverter directly to another AC power source.

Keep it away from children, the inverter produces power just like your AC wall outlets at home and should be treated seriously.

Allow at least 1 inch of clearance around the inverter for airflow.

If you operate the inverter in a moving vehicle, you need to secure the inverter to prevent it from shifting around while the vehicle is moving.

If there is anything wrong with the inverter, disconnect all of the power.
