Specific Safety Instructions for Inverters
WARNING – To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Do not make any electrical connections or disconnections in areas
designated as IGNITION PROTECTED. This includes DC cigarette
lighter type plug connection. This unit is NOT approved for ignition
protected areas.
• NEVER immerse the unit in water or any other liquid, or use when wet.
• Do not insert foreign objects into the inverter's outlets.
• Do not attach USB hubs or more than one personal electronic device
to each USB Port.
• Extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.

Outdoor use extension cords. When an appliance plugged into
this unit is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use
outdoors and so marked. Note that this inverter is not intended
to be used outdoors.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire:
• Do not operate near flammable materials, fumes or gases.
• Do not expose to extreme heat or flames.
• If the vehicle accessory outlet fuse opens (blows) when plugging in
this inverter, do not use this inverter with this vehicle accessory outlet:
– Do not repeatedly replace the fuse.
– Do not replace the vehicle accessory outlet fuse with one of
a higher amperage rating.
– Never attempt to patch the fuse with tin foil or wire.
Any of these actions may cause serious electrical damage and/
or a fire.
This inverter is rated to draw 9.5 amperes from a 12V vehicle outlet.
Ensure that the engine system in your vehicle can supply sufficient
energy to the inverter without causing the vehicle accessory outlet
fuse to open.
The fuse must be rated higher than 12 amps. Information on the vehicle
accessory fuse ratings are typically found in the vehicle operator's
101-150
manual.
(30.4-45.7m)
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of injury or property damage:
201-300
• It is not necessary (or desirable) to turn your vehicle on to operate
(60.9-91.4m)
this inverter. Simply turn the engine switch to the accessory position
101' -150 '
(usually the second position, just before "engine start"). Or turn on the
running lights (the small lights that surround the car). This is generally
14
the first button on the light switch, depending on the make of vehicle.
12
• If the inverter shuts down repeatedly, the car battery charge may be
12
low. Discontinue inverter use to avoid draining the battery.
