Operating Instructions
Connecting a load
• Before connecting any appliance to the inverter, switch Power Switch (4)
to the ON position. After a few moments the green Power Indicator Light
(1) will illuminate. The inverter is now ready to be used.
• Do not connect loads greater than the rated maximum continuous power
output of the inverter (see specifications).
• Some appliances (televisions, stereos, motors, neon lights etc) may
require a much higher starting power than their rated power. If the
appliance will not start, the maximum output of the inverter has been
exceeded. Reduce the total load on the inverter.
• If the appliance to be connected does not have its wattage (W) indicated
on it, the wattage can be calculated by multiplying the amperage (A)
by 230.
• Electrical appliances can be connected to the 230V Outlet Sockets (3).
Low battery protection
• In order to prevent your vehicle battery from being run flat, this inverter is
equipped with a low voltage alarm and automatic low battery shutdown.
• Do not connect loads greater than the rated maximum continuous power
output of the inverter (see specifications).
• If the supply voltage drops to 10.5V the low battery alarm will sound
and the Low Battery Indicator Light (2) will illuminate. This indicates that
the battery should be charged. If the supply voltage is allowed to drop to
10V, the inverter will automatically cut out. To restart the inverter, switch
off, charge the battery, and switch back on.
• A typical 12V battery will have an operating time of at least 1-2 hours.
It is recommended that the vehicle's engine is started and run once every
hour to 'top up' the battery.
Note: the inverter may shut down as the engine is started due to the
high electrical load generated by the vehicle starter motor.
Overload protection
• This inverter is equipped with an in-built high temperature cut out. If
an overload causes the internal parts of the inverter to overheat it will
automatically shut down.
• To restart, switch off, reduce the load, allow the inverter to cool, and
switch back on.

Trouble shooting
Possible cause
Low battery voltage
Inverter in thermal shutdown
12V lead not properly connected
Internal fuse "blown"
Starting load of appliance is too great
Poor electrical connections
Inadequate power supply
Inverter is overloaded
Input voltage is below 11V
Inverter is located to close to aerial
Aerial cable is not shielded
Maintenance
Cleaning
• Disconnect the inverter from the power supply before cleaning.
• Keep your inverter clean. Always clean dust or particles away, and never
allow ventilation holes to become blocked. Use a soft brush or dry cloth
to clean the inverter. If available blow through the ventilation holes with
clean, dry, compressed air.
Suggested Remedy
Charge or replace battery
Allow inverter to cool before switching on
Check lead for proper connections
Have inverter serviced at an authorised service centre
Reduce load
Check/clean electrical connections
Check 12V system capacity
Reduce load
Charge or replace battery
Move inverter/aerial
Use shielded cable
