Lighter Adapter
CPS140BI contains a fuse inside in the Lighter Adapter (see Figure 2) to protect the unit against
overloading. If the inverter draws more than 140 watts, the internal fuse may be blown to protect
the inverter, vehicle battery and the connected equipment. To replace the fuse, please follow the
instruction below:
1. Unplug the inverter from the power source.
2. Remove the Contact Screw from the Lighter Adapter.
3. Replace the 15 ampere fuse.
4. Reassemble the fuse, contact pin and contact screw carefully.
5. Ensure all pieces showed in Figure 2 are installed in the sequence shown.
*Note: For in-warranty units, the replacement fuse can be obtained from CyberPower
Technical Support. For out-of-warranty units, the replacement 15 ampere fuse can be obtained
from most electronic supply retailers.
