BEFORE USING YOUR POWER INVERTER NOTE: This inverter is designed to be used with a single battery, up to group 31 type and 130 Ah or smaller in size. Do not use with any larger battery type. Do not use with multiple batteries connected in parallel. NOTE: Do not use the inverter with a product that draws a higher wattage than the inverter can provide, as this may cause damage to the inverter and product.
To calculate the continuous load: Continuous Load = AMPS x 120 (AC Voltage). Always run a test to establish whether the inverter will operate a particular piece of equipment or device. In the event of a power overload, the inverter is designed to automatically shut down. This safety feature prevents damaging the inverter while testing devices and equipment within the wattage range of the inverter. This inverter is designed to power 100 watt devices or less when used with the vehicle 12 volt accessory port.
4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DC Outlet DC Plug 1. If connecting in a vehicle, remove the cigarette lighter from its outlet. 2. Push the 12-volt power plug firmly into the outlet. 3.

6. LED INDICATOR AND SHUTDOWN PROTECTION The LED glows GREEN automatically when plugged into a 12-volt DC source and will not glow under the following conditions: 1. When the power input from the vehicle’s battery drops to approximately 10.5-volts, low battery shutdown occurs and inverter shuts off. Solution: Recharge or Replace the battery. 2. When the power input from the vehicle’s battery exceeds 15.5-volts, high voltage protection occurs.
