If the alarm sounds, this means that the input voltage is at or below 10.6 V. The 1.
battery needs recharging. You should stop using the Power Inverter and recharge
the battery. If this is not done, the Inverter will shut off automatically at 10 V.
If you are unsure if the inverter will have the proper amount of current to run your
2.
devices, add up the total of the peak wattage of the items you wish to plug into
the Inverter. If this figure is under 1000 then the Inverter will be able to start up the
items. Also, add up the total of the continuous wattage for the items. If this figure is
under 800 then the Inverter will be able to run the items at the same time.
If your television will not start, it is important to keep in mind that some appliances
3.
(including many televisions) may require two to six times their wattage to start up.
If your audio system buzzes while using this inverter, it is because some sound
4.
systems can not filter out the modified sine wave produced by the inverter. Use a
sound system that incorporates a higher quality power supply.
This inverter is made to minimize the interference with TV signals. However, es-
5.
pecially with weak TV signals, some interference may still be visible. To correct
this, place the inverter as far away as possible from the television antenna and it’s
cables. Next, adjust the orientation of the inverter to the antenna cables and TV
power cord to minimize the interference. Also use a shielded antenna cable.
If the low battery alarm is on all the time, try these corrective measures: Recharge
6.
battery if in poor condition. Next, check the battery connection. You may need to
clean the connectors.
If you are getting a low output voltage, try reducing the load to minimize watts. You
7.
may have overloaded the inverter. Reduce the number of watts you are powering.
Also, keep input voltage above 11 volts to maintain a constant flow of power.
If you are not getting any power output, turn the power switch Off and On again,
8.
until the green power light comes on. Your devices may draw too much power to
operate them. The inverter may be in thermal shutdown. Let it cool down and make
sure there is adequate ventilation around the unit.
