Turning Your Inverter On or Off

Be sure to have your power inverter properly installed before
attempting to turn the unit on (see installation page 6).

To turn the power inverter on:

1. If a DC power supply is being used as the power

source, switch it on.

2. On the left side panel, switch the On/Off Switch to on.

The inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads.
If several loads are to be operated by the inverter, turn
them on separately, after the inverter has been turned on.
This will ensure that the inverter does not have to deliver
the starting currents required for all the loads at once.

To turn the power inverter off:

1. On the left side panel, switch the On/Off Switch to off.

NOTE The On/Off Switch turns the control circuit
in the inverter on and off. It does not disconnect
power from the inverter.

When the switch is in the off position, the inverter
draws no current from the battery. When it’s in the
on position, but no power is being supplied to the
load, the inverter draws less than 500 milliamperes
from the battery. This is low current draw. It would
take more than a week to discharge a 100 ampere-
hour battery at this rate depending on the age of
the battery.

Remote On/Off Switch (not included)

An optional Remote On/Off Switch (not included) can be
connected to the Remote Jack allowing you to turn the
Cobra power inverter on or off from a convenient location
when the inverter is installed in an out of reach location.
