outlets are ready to power appliances that draw up to 1000W
continuous and USB outlets up to 3.1A.
Note: Refer to "Power and Fault Indicators on the LCD Display" for
an explanation of the operating and fault icons. If a fault icon appears,
refer to the "Protective Features" section and the "Troubleshooting"
section of this manual.
DIRECT HARDWIRING TO POWER SOURCE (OPTIONAL
CONNECTION METHOD; HARDWARE NOT INCLUDED)
Use #8 AWG wire if the inverter to power source connection is 4 feet
or less. For cable lengths up to 10ft use #6 AWG wire.* In either case,
protect the positive (+) wire from shorts by installing a 150 amp fuse
or circuit breaker close to the DC power source (battery) terminal.
The cable, fuse holder and fuse (not supplied) can be purchased at
an electrical supply company. Manufacturer provides the installation
cable set (refer to the "Installation" section of this manual).
*For cable lengths exceeding 10 feet from inverter to battery, contact
manufacturer for additional information.
1. Check to make sure that the inverter is turned off and no flammable
fumes are present in the installation area.
2. Identify the positive (+) and negative (–) DC power source (battery)
terminals.
3. Install a fuse holder or breaker close to the positive (+) terminal of
the DC source (battery).
4. Connect a length of wire on one side of the fuse holder or circuit
breaker. Connect the other end of the wire to the positive (+, red)
O-ring of the supplied cable set, securing them using the supplied
bolt, washer and the wing nuts.
5. Connect a length of wire on one side of the negative (–) DC power
source (battery) terminal. Connect the other end of the wire to the
negative (–, black) O-ring of the supplied cable set, securing them
using the supplied bolt, washer and the wing nuts.

6. Connect a short length of wire to the other terminal of the fuse
holder or circuit breaker. Mark it "positive" or "+".
7. Connect the free end of the fuse or breaker wire to the positive (+)
terminal of the DC power source (battery).
8. Insert a fuse appropriate to the inverter in the fuse holder.
9. Check to make sure the power button is turned off.
10. Turn the red plastic cap on the inverter's positive (+) cable post
(counterclockwise) and remove. Attach the positive slide-in
connector at the end of the supplied red cable set into the groove
of the positive (+) cable post. Replace the cap and turn clockwise
to secure. Do not over-tighten.
11. Turn the black plastic cap on the inverter's negative (–) cable
post (counterclockwise) and remove. Attach the negative slide-in
connector at the end of the supplied black cable set into the groove
of the negative (–) cable post. Replace the cap and turn clockwise
to secure. Do not over-tighten.
12. Make sure that all connections between cables and terminals are
secure.
13. Press the power button to turn the inverter on. A beep will sound,
the backlit LCD and the USB power/fault indicators will activate
to indicate the inverter is operating properly and the 120 volt AC
outlets are ready to power appliances that draw up to 1000W
continuous and USB outlets up to 3.1A. Refer to "Power and Fault
Indicators on the LCD Display" for an explanation of the operating
and fault icons. If a fault icon appears, refer to the "Protective
Features" section and the "Troubleshooting" section of this manual.
14. Test the inverter by turning it on and plugging in a 100 watt lamp
or equipment. If the inverter is not operating properly, then rrefer
to the "Protective Features" section and the "Troubleshooting"
section of this manual.

CAUTIONS
• The cable and fuse sizes given here are a general recommendation.
You should always consult your National Electrical Code prior to
beginning each specific installation.
• Loose connectors may cause overheated wires and melted insulation.
• Check to make sure you have not reversed the polarity. Damage due
to reversed polarity is not covered by our warranty.
Important Cable Information: Substantial power loss and reduced
battery operating time results from inverters installed with cables that are
not able to supply full power. Symptoms of low battery power can result
from cables that are either excessively long or an insufficient gauge.
Connection To Load
The Power Inverter is equipped with dual standard North American
three-prong type outlets. Plug the cord from the equipment you wish
to operate into the AC receptacle(s). Make sure the combined load
requirement of your equipment does not exceed maximum continuous
power.
The Power Inverter is engineered to be connected directly to standard
electrical and electronic equipment in the manner described above.
Do not connect the Power Inverter to household or RV AC distribution
wiring. Do not connect the Power Inverter to any AC load circuit in
which the neutral conductor is connected to ground (earth) or to the
negative of the DC (battery) source.
WARNING: Do not connect to AC distribution wiring!
Operating Instructions
The two standard North American 120 volt AC outlets and three USB
ports are ready to use once the inverter is properly connected to a
functioning power source and the power button is turned on. They
allow simultaneous operation of multiple devices. Simply plug the
110/120 volt AC appliance into one of the inverter's three-prong AC
outlets and/or plug the USB-powered device into one of the inverter's
USB charging ports and operate normally.
Notes:
A. Ensure that the wattage of all equipment simultaneously plugged
into the inverter does not exceed 140 watts continuous when
connected using the supplied 12V DC adapter plug, and 1000
watts continuous when connected using the supplied battery
clips or direct hardwiring.
B. This inverter's USB Charging Ports does not support data
communication. It only provides a total of 3.1A (5V each) DC
power to an external USB-powered device.
C. Not all mobile phones are provided with a charging cable, they
are normally data cables which are not supported by this device
– please check with your mobile phone manufacturer for the
correct charging cable.
CAUTION – To avoid the risk of property damage: Always connect
the inverter to the 12 volt DC power source before plugging any devices
into the unit.
