Inverter Features - Schumacher Electric PI-1000 Manual Del Usuario

1.10 Only connect the power inverter to a 12 volt battery or power supply. Do not attempt
to connect the inverter to any other power source, including an AC power source.
Connecting to a 6 volt or 16 volt battery will cause damage to the inverter.
1.11 Make sure the AC plug is tight.
1.12 Do not modify the inverter in any way including cables, plugs, switches or AC receptacles
as it may result in property damage or personal injury.
1.13 Incorrect operation of the inverter may result in property damage or personal injury.
any ordinary household AC wall outlet.
1.14 To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the inverter from the power source before
attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Simply turning off the controls will not reduce
this risk.
1.15 Do not operate the inverter with damaged cables; have the cables replaced immediately
by a qualified service person. (Call customer service at: 1-800-621-5485.)
1.16 Do not operate the inverter if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise
damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service person. (Call customer service at:
1-800-621-5485.)
1.17 Do not disassemble the inverter; take it to a qualified service person when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of fire or electric shock. (Call
customer service at: 1-800-621-5485.)
1.18 Working in the vicinity of a lead-acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive
gases during normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of utmost importance that you
follow the instructions each time you use the inverter.
1.19 This inverter employs parts, such as switches and circuit breakers, that tend to produce
arcs and sparks. If used in a garage, locate this inverter 18 inches (46 cm) or more above
the floor level.
1.20 Do not use the inverter with a product that draws a higher wattage than the inverter can
provide, as this may cause damage to the inverter and product.

5. High-Speed Cooling Fan(s)
as the load increases. The fan does not run when the inverter is turned OFF.
6. Analog Output Power Display
lights indicate half of the continuous output power and 10 lights indicate full continuous
power consumption. When the inverter is OFF, the lights do not illuminate.
7. Positive Battery Cable Terminal (Red)
8. Negative Battery Cable Terminal (Black)
9. Ground Terminal
10. Thermal Protection
inverter shuts down until it cools off an then automatically restarts.
11. Surge Protection
the inverter shuts down. Once the voltage drops down to less than 14, it automatically
restarts.
12. Low-Battery Protection
approximately 10 volts, the inverter shuts down.
