Using the In-Car Plug:
• Remove the screws of the 12V Input Connectors (5) and attach the
connectors from the In-Car Plug (7). Tighten the screws
• Push the plug firmly into the in-car socket in the vehicle
Operating Instructions
Connecting a load
• Before connecting any appliance to the inverter, switch Power Switch (4)
to the ON position. After a few moments the green Power Indicator Light
(1) will illuminate. The inverter is now ready for use
• Do not connect loads greater than the rated maximum continuous power
output of the inverter (see specifications)
• Some appliances (televisions, stereos, motors, neon lights etc) may
require a much higher starting power than their rated power. If the
appliance will not start, the maximum output of the inverter has been
exceeded. Reduce the total load on the inverter
• If the appliance to be connected does not have its wattage (W) indicated
on it, the wattage can be calculated by multiplying the amperage (A)
by 230
• Electrical appliances can be connected to the 230V Outlet Socket (3)
Low battery protection
• This inverter is equipped with a low voltage alarm and automatic low
battery shutdown to avoid the vehicle battery from being drained
completely
• Do not connect loads greater than the rated maximum continuous power
output of the inverter (see specifications)
• If the supply voltage drops to 10.5V the low battery alarm will sound
and the Low Battery Indicator Light (2) will illuminate. This indicates that
the battery should be charged. If the supply voltage is allowed to drop to
10V, the inverter will automatically cut out. To restart the inverter, switch
off, charge the battery, and switch back on
• A typical 12V battery will have an operating time of at least 1-2 hours.
It is recommended that the vehicle's engine is started and run once every
hour to 'top up' the battery
Note: the inverter may shut down as the engine is started due to the high
electrical load generated by the vehicle starter motor.

Troubleshooting

Possible cause
Low battery voltage
Inverter in thermal shutdown
12V lead not properly connected
Internal fuse 'blown'
Starting load of appliance is too great
Poor electrical connections
Inadequate power supply
Inverter is overloaded
Input voltage is below 11V
Inverter is located too close to aerial
Aerial cable is not shielded
Overload protection
• This inverter is equipped with an in-built high temperature cut out. If
an overload causes the internal parts of the inverter to overheat it will
automatically shut down
• To restart: switch off, reduce the load and allow the inverter to cool.
Then switch back on
Maintenance
Cleaning
• Disconnect the inverter from the power supply before cleaning
• Keep your inverter clean. Always clean dust or particles away, and never
allow ventilation holes to become blocked. Use a soft brush or dry cloth
to clean the inverter. If available blow through the ventilation holes with
clean, dry compressed air
Disposal
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment, with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct
way to dispose of tools
Suggested remedy
Charge or replace battery
Allow inverter to cool before switching on
Check lead for proper connections
Have inverter serviced at an authorised service centre
Reduce load
Check/clean electrical connections
Check 12V system capacity
Reduce load
Charge or replace battery
Move inverter/aerial
Use shielded cable
