Automatic Shut Down & Related Safety Features.
Each WHISTLER GO AC inverter model has an unique LED Indicator warning light system which operates in conjunction with the automatic shut down feature. These indicator lights operate as follows:
GREEN LED: System ready.
YELLOW LED: System overload/automatic shut down.
Your inverter will shut down automatically when any of the following problems occur:
1.The power input from the battery drops below 9.5 volts.
2.The power input from the battery exceeds 16 volts.
3.The continuous draw of the appliance or equipment being operated exceeds the design parameters of the inverter.
The WHISTLER PP150AC and PP350AC models are equipped with the following additional safety features:
1.Thermal Cut Off:
Automatic shut down when the internal circuit temperature exceeds standard design parameters for safe opera- tion.
2.Low Battery Voltage Alarm/Shutdown Protection
a)When the input voltage from the 12 volt power source drops below 10.5 volts, an audible tone will be heard. This is the low battery voltage alarm.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES
b)The inverter will automatically shut down when the input voltage drops below 9.5 volts. This protects the battery from completely draining.
In the event of automatic shut down or continuous audible alarm, turn the inverter rocker switch to the OFF (O) position until the source of the related problem has been identified and resolved.
Note:
•The Whistler PP350AC model only is equipped with a cooling fan which is designed to run continuously while the inverter is operating. Automatic shutdown caused by excess circuit temperature occurs when the cooling fan is unable to maintain the design parameters for safe operation of the inverter.
Wall Mounting:
Whistler inverters have provisions for wall mounting; two slotted holes in the handle area and a notched area at the power cord end allow for easy wall mounting of the unit.
Some Powerful Advice.
Your WHISTLER GO AC inverter will work best when placed on a reasonably flat surface. The floor or seat of your car or truck both are good locations.
