You may also charge the internal battery while driving, using the male-to-male
charger cable (p/n 94500109 – not included). Insert one end of the accessory cable
into the 12V DC power outlet and the other end into the vehicle's accessory outlet
(lighter socket). Completely disconnect the charger cable when the vehicle's engine
is not running. NOTE: The Charging (red) LED and the green LED do not operate
during this method of charging.

4.1
Using The Inverter
It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device you plan to use with
the inverter. The Portable Power must be used with devices drawing 400 watts
or less. If the wattage is not marked on the device, an estimate can be made by
multiplying the AC input current (Amps) by the AC voltage (120V).
Devices like TVs, fans or electronic motors require additional power to start
(commonly known as the "starting or peak power"). The Portable Power can
supply a momentary surge in wattage; however, even devices rated less than
the maximum 400 watts can exceed the inverter's surge capability and cause an
automatic overload shutdown.
Make sure the device you are using is compatible with the modified sine wave inverter.
NOTE: In the event of a power overload, the inverter is designed to automatically
shut down. This safety feature prevents damaging the inverter while testing devices
and equipment with the 400-watt limit.
Powering a 120V AC Device
To operate a 120V AC device:
•
Plug the 120V AC device into the AC power outlet, and push the inverter switch to
ON. NOTE: The CHARGING (red) LED also functions as the INVERTER ON light.
When you push the inverter switch to the ON position, the CHARGING (red) LED
will light.
•
Turn on the 120V AC device (if required).
•
If a device will not operate properly when first connected to the inverter, push
the inverter rocker switch ON, OFF, and ON again in quick succession. If this
procedure is not successful, it is likely that the Portable Power does not have the
required capacity to operate the device in question.
•
Charge the Portable Power as soon as possible after each use.
CAUTION: Incorrect operation of your inverter may result in property damage and
personal injury. Electrical current on a 120-volt circuit can be very dangerous.
