Recommended battery Running time at rated continuous rated power 12V/45Ah 1 hour 40 minutes Health & Safety Guidelines IMPORTANT: This inverter is only suitable for use with 12V batteries only. This appliance is primarily designed for operating Class 2 appliances. Warning! Electric Hazard. Keep away from children 1. This inverter is not a toy, and it should never be used by children. 2. This inverter generates the same voltage as a UK 3-pin plug socket.
Intention For Use Thank you for purchasing this 300W modified sine wave inverter from Streetwize. This inverter safely converts your vehicle’s 12V DC battery into a 240V AC power supply for using standard UK electrical appliances that require up to 300W. It is intended for people who require access to an AC power supply in areas where there is restricted access to power. They’re suitable for caravan/campervan users as well as tradespeople.
Product Elements 1. Modified sine wave inverter 2. 12V connection cables 3. Battery clamp connection cables Measuring The AC Voltage The output waveform of the AC output is a MODIFIED SINE WAVE. To measure the AC output voltage, you must have a TRUE RMS VOLTMETER. Sine Wave Modified Sine Wave Operating Instructions PLEASE NOTE: There are two ways of operating the inverter. The first way is to power the inverter via your vehicle’s 12V socket.
12V Socket To use the inverter via your vehicle’s 12V socket, simply connect the O-rings of the 12V connection cable to the inverter’s terminals, with the black cable going to the negative terminal and the red cable going to the positive terminal. Plug the 12V plug into the 12V socket, then switch on your vehicle. WARNING: Only use the 12V plug for powering appliances that require less than 150W. Do NOT power an appliance that requires more than 150W as this will risk damaging your vehicle’s fuse.
How to Replace the Fuse The inverter’s fuse is located at the back of the unit. See Figure 1. If in case the fuse does need to be replaced (see Troubleshooting), you will need a 35A fuse. Fig. 1 Troubleshooting Table 3 outlines possible troubleshoots along with its suggested solutions. Troubleshoot/Problem Possible Cause Suggested Solution Inverter is not working Poor battery connection Turn off the inverter and disconnect it from the battery.
After Use After you have finished using the inverter (or when the inverter is not in use), turn off the unit and make sure your vehicle’s fully switched off. Then, turn the unit off and then disconnect the inverter from the 12V power supply. When disconnecting from the battery, disconnect the negative cable first, followed by the positive cable.
