Switching on with an external device
You can also switch the inverter on and off with a connected external switch.
➤ Set the on/off switch (fig. 1 1, page 3) on the device to "Remote".
✓ If the inverter is switched on via an external switch, the LED (fig. 1 2,
page 3) lights up green.
Observe the following when using the device
During operation, if the battery voltage drops below 11 V for MSP 162/
MSP 352 or 22 V for SP 164/354, a warning signal sounds and the LED
(fig. 1 2, page 3) flashes red. If the battery voltage falls further, the inverter
switches off.
If the inverter overheats, it switches off – the LED (fig. 1 2, page 3) flashes
red.
➤ If this happens, switch the inverter off with the switch.
When it cools down, you can use the inverter again.
When operating the inverter at a high load for lengthy periods, it is advisable
to start the engine in order to recharge the vehicle battery.
You can operate the inverter with the engine running or switched off. Howev-
er, do not start the engine while the inverter is switched on, since the power
supply to the cigarette lighter is disconnected during ignition.
