Maintenance and Care

A minimum amount of care can keep your power inverter working and looking good for years:
• Check your battery and DC input connections regularly to ensure that they are tight and free of corrosion.
• Wipe off any battery fluid at the battery connection. Battery fluid may be neutralized with a solution of water
and baking soda.
• Ensure that the inverter has several inches of space around all sides and the top for air circulation.
• Ensure that any cables (DC or AC) that are routed though partitions or other obstructions are free from
abrasion.
• If needed, wipe the case clean with a soft cloth.

Replacing Blown Fuses

Your SOLAR power inverter is equipped with fuses of specific amperage rating and physical design. In most cases,
the fuses should not need to be replaced. If replacement is necessary, it is important that you purchase and install
the correct replacement fuse(s). Please reference the chart below to determine the correct fuse(s) for your product.

ALWAYS disconnect your SOLAR power inverter from the 12 Volt power source and disconnect any equipment
powered prior to opening the inverter cabinet attempting to replace the fuse(s). ALWAYS use the proper replacement
fuse(s) as indicated in the chart above. Make sure to address the root source of the overload that caused the blown
fuse prior to using your power inverter again.

Troubleshooting

Problem:
Low or no output voltage from the power inverter
Answer:
Check connections between the 12 Volt power source and the power inverter as detailed in "Connect the
DC Input Cables."
Answer: Check that the power inverter is turned ON and that the device to be powered is turned ON.
Answer: Check polarity of DC connection to ensure it is correct. If a reverse connection has been made, most
likely the inverter fuses have been blown. Replace fuses. Damage to the inverter caused by a reverse
polarity condition is not covered under the warranty.
Answer:
Using the incorrect type of voltmeter to test the output voltage. To accurately measure the the output
voltage of your SOLAR Power Inverter, use only a voltmeter identified as a "True RMS" reading
voltmeter.
Problem:
Fault LED ON
Answer:
The voltage of the 12 Volt power source may have dropped below 10 Volts – check 12 Volt power
source voltage and recharge as needed.
Answer:
The device being powered is placing a power demand on the inverter that is beyond its operating
capacity – use a higher capacity power inverter or cease powering that device using your power inverter.
Answer:
The inverter is too hot – allow the inverter to cool. Check for adequate ventilation. If problem persists,
reduce the the load on the power inverter to the rated continuous power.
