1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.
1.1 Keep out of reach of children.
1.2 Keep the inverter well ventilated in order to properly disperse
heat generated while it is in use. Make sure there are several
inches of clearance around the top and sides and do not block the
slots of the inverter.
1.3 Make sure the inverter is not close to any potential source of ammable fumes, gases or
clothing.
1.4 Do not place the inverter in areas such as battery compartments or engine compartments
where fumes or gases may accumulate.
1.5 Keep the inverter dry.
1.6 DO NOT allow the inverter to come into contact with rain or moisture.
1.7 DO NOT operate the inverter if you, the inverter, the device being operated or any other
surfaces that may come into contact with any power source are wet. Water and many other
liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to serious injury or death.
1.8 Do not place the inverter on or near heating vents, radiators or other sources of heat or
ammable materials.
1.9 Do not place the inverter in direct sunlight. The ideal air temperature for operation is
between 50° and 80°F (10º and 27ºC).
1.10 Only connect the power inverter to a 12 volt battery or power supply. Do not attempt to
connect the inverter to any other power source, including an AC power source. Connecting
to a 6 volt or 16 volt battery will cause damage to the inverter.
1.11 Make sure the AC plug is tight.
1.12 Do not modify the inverter in any way including cables, plugs, switches or AC receptacles
as it may result in property damage or personal injury.
1.13 Incorrect operation of the inverter may result in property damage or personal injury.
WARNING
The inverter output is 110V AC and can shock or electrocute the same as
any ordinary household AC wall outlet.
1.14 Do not open – No user serviceable parts inside.
1.15 This device does not include an internal Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
1.16 To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the inverter from the power source before
attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Simply turning off the controls will not reduce this risk.
