Operating instructions
1. Plug 120 V~ device(s) into the receptacles. Switch
all devices off. The devices must not use more
than the rated wattage during continuous operation,
otherwise they may overload the Inverter.
2. Turn the inverter’s Switch on.
nOte: Some rechargeable tools/appliances may
damage the Inverter or the device(s). When first
using a rechargeable device, check the Inverter’s
temperature for the first ten minutes. If it becomes
abnormally hot, do not use the device with the Inverter.
3. Turn the tool or appliance(s) on, one at a time. If
the alarm sounds, turn off the device(s). Unplug
the device(s) from the Inverter. Check the
wattage of the devices, if there were multiple
devices plugged in, discontinue use of one or
more. If a single device set the alarm off, it is
not appropriate for use with the Inverter.
4. If the inverter is powered by a vehicle’s starting
battery, be careful not to discharge the battery
to the point that it will no longer start the engine.
If needed, operate the engine periodically to
maintain the batteries charge. Do not operate
a vehicle’s engine in an enclosed space.
5. Inverter will consume some power while on, even
without loads attached. Turn inverter off after use.
