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.

•
flammable fumes or clothing.
Do not place the inverter in areas such as battery compartments
•
or engine compartments where fumes may accumulate.
Keep the inverter dry.
