14 Freedom Xi Owner’s Guide
Operating in Inverter Mode
The Freedom Xi is in inverter operation (operating in inverter
mode) when all the following conditions exist:
• inverter power button is ON
• inverter mode setting is ON
• shore power is not presently available
• battery has sufficient power
Inverter operation means that DC battery power is presently being
converted to utility grade AC power, powering equipment and
appliances connected to the AC output terminal of the unit.
The Yellow status LED lights up to indicate the Freedom Xi is using
the battery to power the equipment and appliances.
Turning Inverter Operation ON and OFF
The Inverter Power button on the display panel turns the Freedom
Xi’s inverter operation ON or OFF.
◆ Press the button and hold for one second.
To prevent unnecessary battery discharge, turn the Inverter Power
button off when you are not using the Freedom Xi.
Power Save Feature
The Power Save feature is a 25-hour countdown that automatically
shuts down inverter operation to reduce battery discharge and
preserve battery life. During continuous inverter operation, a 25-
hour countdown is initiated when power from the AC load drops to
less than approximately 50 watts and remains below this level. After
25 hours the inverter automatically shuts down.
To enable this feature the inverter mode setting must be set to
“
”. See “To change the inverter mode setting:” on page 8.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Turning the Inverter mode setting to OFF and/or turning the Inverter
Power button off does not disconnect DC battery power from the
Freedom Xi. You must disconnect both AC and DC power before
working on any circuits connected to the unit.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.
