Important safety information

Important: Before installing and using your HI400

Inverter, be sure to read and save these safety instructions.

General precautions

1.Before installing and using the inverter, read all appropriate sections of this guide and any cautionary markings on the inverter and batteries.

2.Do not operate the inverter if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged. If the unit is damaged, see “Service during warranty” on page 48 and “Returning a product” on page 49.

3.Do not disassemble the inverter; it contains no user serviceable parts. Attempting to service the unit yourself could cause electrical shock or fire. Internal capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected. See “Warranty information” on page 48 for instructions on obtaining service.

4.To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC power from the inverter before working on any circuits connected to the inverter. Turning off the front panel On/Off Switch will not reduce this risk.

5.Protect the inverter from rain, snow, spray, and bilge water.

6.To reduce the risk of overheating or fire, keep the ventilation openings clear, and do not install the inverter in a zero-clearance compartment.
