IF THE CONVERTER'S FUSE BLOWS

Your power converter is fitted with a fuse, which should not have to be replaced under normal operating conditions. A blown fuse is usually caused by reverse polarity or a
short circuit within the device or equipment being operated.
If the fuse does blow:
1. Disconnect the device or equipment immediately.
2. Find the source of the problem and repair it.
3. Install a new 15 amp fuse. The fuse can be found on the end of the plug on the converter.
4. Do not overtighten the fuse cap; finger-tight is sufficient.
IMPORTANT: Do not install a fuse higher than 15 amp, as this may damage the converter. Make sure to correct the cause of the blown fuse before using the converter again.
