press the On/Off switch:
•OUP – The vehicle’s battery voltage is between 15 and 16 volts. The inverter will
automatically restart after the voltage drops below 15.0 volts.
•OLPThe continuous load demand from the device exceeds the inverter’s wattage output.
•OCP – The inverter is overheated and automatically turns off for a period of 1 to 3 minutes
to cool. Make sure the inverter is well ventilated. It will automatically restart after it cools.
•LUP – Low Voltage Alarm. The vehicle’s battery voltage is between 10.7 and 11.3 volts.

10. IF THE INVERTER FUSE BLOWS
The power inverter is tted with fuses, 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 fuses blow:
The fuse is not user-replaceable; take the inverter to a qualied service person.
