in a set with a standard Philips head screwdriver (none of these are
supplied). User may choose to use different screws appropriate to the
mounting surface.
Secure the inverter to a flat surface, observing all cautions regarding
installation found in this manual.
CAUTION – To avoid the risk of property damage: Only mount the
inverter on a level, stable surface, assuring that all screws are tightened
securely and observing all of the cautions and recommendations
regarding installation found in this manual.
Operating Environment
For best operating results, your inverter should be placed on a flat
surface, such as the ground, car floor or seat, or other solid surface
to help diffuse the heat that is generated. Position the inverter as close
to the DC power source as possible.
The inverter should only be operated in locations that meet the following
criteria:
DRY – Do not allow water and/or other liquids to come into contact
with the inverter.
COOL – Surrounding air temperature should ideally be 50-68°F (10-
20°C). Do not place the inverter on or near a heating vent or any piece
of equipment that is generating heat above room temperature. Keep
the inverter out of direct sunlight.
VENTILATED – Allow at least three inches of clearance from other
objects to ensure free air circulation around the inverter. Never place
items on or over the inverter during operation.
SAFE – Do not locate inverters in an area, room or compartment
where explosives or flammable fumes might be present, such as
engine rooms, engine compartments, and boats or small, unvented
battery compartments.
Connecting the Inverter
The inverter must be connected only to batteries with a nominal output
voltage of 12 volts. The unit will not operate from a 6 volt battery and
will sustain permanent damage if connected to a 24 volt battery.
The standard North American 120 volt AC outlets and USB charging
ports allow simultaneous operation of multiple devices. Simply plug the
equipment into the unit and operate normally. Ensure that the wattage
of all equipment simultaneously plugged into the unit does not exceed
1000 watts continuous.
CAUTION – To avoid the risk of property damage: Always connect
the unit to the 12 volt DC power source before plugging any devices
into the unit.
Connection to Power Source
The Power Inverter comes equipped Battery Clips for connection to
a power source.
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE USING THE PROVIDED
BATTERY CLIPS WITH SLIDE-IN CONNECTORS
Use the provided Battery Clips (with cables and slide-in connectors)
to connect the Power Inverter directly to the 12 volt power source as
follows:
1. Check to make sure that the inverter is turned off and no flammable
fumes are present in the installation area.
2. Turn the red plastic cap (counterclockwise) on the inverter’s positive
(+) cable post and remove. Attach the positive connector at the
end of the red battery clip cable into the groove of the positive (+)
cable post. Replace the cap and turn clockwise to secure. Do not
over-tighten.
3. Connect the red battery clip to the POSITIVE terminal of the battery.
4. Turn the black plastic cap (counterclockwise) on the inverter’s
negative (–) cable post and remove. Attach the negative connector
at the end of the black battery clip cable into the groove of the
