When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including:
1. Read all instructions before operating this appliance.
2. Do not operate the inverter if the carton or unit is seriously damaged by drop or pressure, or received a direct hit
of force or is otherwise damaged.
3. Make sure no foreign objects are placed into AC Outlets or USB Port.
4. Do not dismantle inverter. Incorrect assembly may result in risk of electrical shock or fire.
5. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect both AC and DC power from inverter before any maintenance
or cleaning.
6. Protect inverter from rain, snow, and water. Make sure carrying case is zipped to ensure no rain, snow or water
get in. Make sure clear protective outlet cover is closed.
7. Internal inverter components remain charged after power is disconnected.
8. As a precaution - Keep Children away from inverter and its components! The same potentially hazardous or
lethal AC power that is found in a normal household 120V/220V AC power outlet can be found in inverter.
9. Under no circumstances shall the user connect a live AC (household) power supply to inverter's AC socket,
inverter will be damaged even if it is turned off. This unit can only take 12V dc battery power and invert it to
120V/220V AC household power. This unit is not a battery charger!
10. Inverter must be installed with an inline fuse in the positive (+) cable on the DC side of the inverter (between
the battery and the inverter) at a distance of seven inches from the battery connection.
ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Personal Safety Precautions
1. Someone should be within the range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when installing inverter
or working near lead acid batteries.
2. Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes while working on or with batteries.
Keep plenty of soap and water nearby in case of battery acid comes in contact with skin, clothing or eyes.
3. If battery acid comes in contact with skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap water.If acid enters into the
eye(s), flood eye(s) with running water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately.
4. Never smoke or make a spark or a flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.
5. Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto a battery. It may spark or short-circuit the
battery or other electrical parts that may cause an explosion.
6. Remove all personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, watches and jewelry when working near a
battery. A battery can produce a short circuit high enough to weld a ring or any metal, causing serious burns.
7. Never charge or invert power from a frozen battery.
