Getting Started

BEFORE YOU START: See Safety information in the Safety, Warranty and Support section. Failure to follow these instructions can damage the unit and could also result in personal injury. Sealed Lead Acid batteries have many hazards like high current, gases and acids. Please exercise caution. To avoid excess battery drain, turn the inverter OFF / disconnect after use.

  1. Remove the caps from the threaded terminals. Fit the ring ends of your desire connector over the terminals and replace the terminal caps.*

Connect the clamps to your battery

2. Connect the clamps to your battery, or insert the cigarette lighter plug into your car’s 12V DC outlet.*

Plug in your AC USB devices

Operation and use

The inverter converts 12 VDC to 115 VAC with a modified sine wave. The modified sine wave output is suitable for most devices, but may not work with some devices that require a pure sine wave.
Make sure that the total power consumption of the connected devices is less than the rating of the inverter. Although the inverter can provide high surge power up to two times the rated output power, some appliances may still trigger the inverter’s protection system.

Safety Information

This section contains important safety information. Before using the inverter, READ ALL instructions and cautionary markings on or provided with the inverter, and all appropriate sections of this guide. The inverter contains no user-serviceable parts.

WARNING: FIRE AND/OR CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD
Do not cover or obstruct any air vent openings and/or install in a zero- clearance compartment.

WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN DEATH **OR SERIOUS INJURY**

  • Use and store the inverter in an indoor area away from direct sunlight, heat, moisture or conductive contaminants.
  • During use, allow a minimum of three inches of space around the inverter for optimal ventilation.
