Thank you for choosing this GYS product; please read this instruction manual carefully before installing and using the
product, and keep in a safe place for future reference.
DESCRIPTION
Convergys converts the input current from your 12V battery to a 230V output. It can be connected using:
• The car cigarette lighter ;
• Directly to the battery.
The CONVERGYS are fan-cooled
The maximum continuous power delivered is:
• CONVERGYS 300W = 300 Watts
SECURITY
• Before use, check that the product is compatible with your car cigarette lighter and if it delivers the necessary current
to the device you want to plug in (300W for the Convergys 300W)
• Do not expose the inverter to: moisture, direct sunlight, high temperatures, or dust.
• Do not dismantle or modify the product.
• To prevent electrical shock, never touch an electrical device with wet hands.
• This product is not suitable for children.
• If a malfunction occurs, stop using the inverter immediately and disconnect.
• Ensure adequate ventilation and do not obstruct the air inlets/outlets.
• Do not short-circuit the cables after the unit has come to a complete standstill, as this may damage the internal com-
ponents. The energy stored during use remains stored.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The inverters are equipped with a thermal protection, electrical protection against polarity reversal and a protection
against undervoltage and overvoltage.
The 300W model is equipped with a red warning light and a buzzer in case of malfunction (see TROUBLESHOOTING
page 8).

ADVICE FOR USE

The CONVERGYS can be used whilst the engine is on or off. For heavy use, or use over a long period of time, you should
start the engine to prevent discharge of the vehicle battery.
Do not start the car while the CONVERGYS is connected.
Some devices require high starting power that can exceed the power of the inverter; this can engage the overload pro-
tection which will cause the machine to switch off. When using multiple devices, ensure they are turned on one after
another starting with the most powerful device.
