multiply the amps by 120 (120V AC) to determine the watts. For example, an
appliance rated at 0.5 amps will draw 60 watts.
WATTS = VOLTS × AMPS
Remember to consider the startup surge that motorized appliances will cause. Do
not exceed the 360 watt momentary surge rating of this inverter. This can cause
immediate overload shut down and or blow a fuse. A fuse protects the Accessory or
Lighter Socket.
Connecting the Inverter
1. Connect the red and black prongs of the supplied DC Adapter Cord into the
inverter.
Be sure to insert them into the correct polarity terminals on the rear of the
inverter. Reverse polarity connection will blow the fuse in the inverter and can
permanently damage to the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity will
void the warranty.
2. Connect the Plug end of the DC Adapter Cable into your vehicle’s 12V DC
accessory outlet. You may need to place the ignition switch to Accessory
Position if the vehicle engine is not operating.
3. Plug the AC appliance cord into the inverter’s AC receptacle, and/or your
USB appliance into the USB Power Port.
4. Place the ON/OFF power switch in the ON position. The green LED should
turn on, indicating the inverter is powered and operating normally.
5. While the Inverter is not in use, place the inverter’s ON/OFF Power Switch
to the OFF position, and optionally unplug the DC Adapter cable from the
vehicle’s DC outlet.
