WARNING:
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
• Assemble the battery bank in a clean,
well-ventilated location, away from
ignition sources and flammable materials.
• To reduce risk of battery explosion,
follow these instructions and those
published by the battery manufacturer and
manufacturer of any equipment you intend
to use in vicinity of a battery. Review
cautionary markings on these products.
CONNECTING THE BATTERIES
IN PARALLEL
1. First, connect all of the positive
terminals to each other.
2. Next, connect all of the negative
terminals to each other.
3. Connect the negative and positive
output cables to opposite ends of
the bank. Do not allow the output
cables to touch one another.
4. Test the voltages at the output cables,
to make sure that the battery bank is
correctly wired.
5. If the voltage is higher than 13 volts,
part of the battery bank is probably
connected in series (a negative
terminal of one battery attached to
a positive terminal of another) instead
of in parallel.
6. Carefully examine the diagram and
correct the wiring before attaching to
the converter.

9. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Connect the converter (see Connecting
Converter Cables section.

5. Make sure the device to be operated
is turned OFF.
6. Plug the device into the converter's
AC outlet.
7. Switch the converter's ON/OFF switch
to the ON (I) position.
8. Turn the device on.
9. To disconnect, reverse the above

7. Make sure the converter's switch is
set to OFF (O).
8. Connect the output cables from the
battery bank to the converter.

Bank Capacity =
(single battery capacity) x (# of batteries)
400 Ah capacity is for (2) 200 Ah batteries.
*200 Ah batteries shown for illustration
purposes.
NOTE: If more than one device is to be
powered, start one device at a time, to
avoid a power surge and overloading
the converter. The surge load of each
device should not exceed the converter's
Continuous Operation wattage rate.
IMPORTANT: Using the converter
with some rechargeable devices may
damage the converter and/or device. If
you are using the converter to operate
a rechargeable device, monitor the
temperature of the converter for about
10 minutes. If the converter becomes
abnormally hot, disconnect it from the
device immediately; do not use the device
with the converter.
USING THE CONVERTER TO OPERATE
A TV OR AUDIO DEVICE
The converter is shielded and filtered to
minimize signal interference. Despite this,
some interference may occur with your
television picture, especially with weak
signals. Below are some suggestions to
improve reception.
