Important Safety Instructions
1. Before using the inverter, read all instructions and cautionary
markings on the unit, the batteries, and all appropriate sections of this
manual.
2. Use only attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer.
Doing otherwise may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons.
3. The inverter is designed to be permanently connected to your AC and
DC electrical systems. Xantrex recommends that all wiring be done
by a certified technician or electrician to ensure adherence to the local
and national electrical codes applicable in your jurisdiction.
4. To avoid a risk of fire and electric shock, make sure that existing
wiring is in good condition and that wire is not undersized. Do not
operate the inverter with damaged or substandard wiring. See
Appendix, F “Multi-wire Branch Circuit Wiring” for information
about multi-wire branch circuits.
5. Do not operate the inverter if it has been damaged in any way. If the
unit is damaged, see the Warranty and Product Information section at
the end of this manual.
6. This unit does not have any user-serviceable parts. Do not
disassemble the inverter. See
“How do you get service?” on page I–1
for instructions on obtaining service. Attempting to service the unit
yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Internal
capacitors remain charged after all power is disconnected.
7. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC
power from the inverter before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning or working on any components connected to the inverter.
Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
8. The inverter must be provided with an equipment-grounding
conductor connected to the AC input ground.
