7. Attach the positive cable to the Positive (+) DC connector on the battery
and then the inverter. Make sure the connections are tight and secure.
8. Turn on the inverter from the Front Panel ON/OFF Switch.
9. Make certain that the green Operating LED is lit and the red FAULT LED
indicator is not lit.
10. Turn OFF (O) the inverter. The Fault LED may briefly flash; this is normal.
The audible alarm may also sound a short chirp; this is also normal.
11. When you have confirmed that the appliance to be operated is turned off,
plug the appliance into one of the AC outlets on the inverter.
12. Turn the inverter on.
13. Turn the appliance on. The appliance should begin working.
14. Observe the LED indicators for normal operation.
If flooded lead acid batteries are used, be sure that periodic checks of battery
electrolyte levels are accomplished. Follow battery manufacturer's instructions in
keeping the electrolytes at the proper level. Be sure to use pure distilled water when
replacing evaporated electrolyte liquid.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• If the power inverter makes a beeping sound, turn OFF the inverter,
disconnect all appliances from the inverter and disconnect the inverter
from the power supply. The beeping sound is the low battery warning that
indicates that the voltage of the battery power supply is getting low. Please
restart the vehicle engine to charge the battery before using it to operate
the inverter again.
• When you are not using the inverter, turn the power switch to OFF. This
conserves battery power.
OPERATING TIPS
ADDING AN EXTENSION CORD
If you need an extension cord, we recommend the use of an extension cord
between the AC output of the inverter and the AC appliances. You may use up
to 100 feet of high quality, heavy-duty extension cord. A longer cord will result
in reduced power to appliances.
