WARNING: Please read this instruction manual carefully before installing and starting up
the device. Do not operate the inverter unless you have fully read and understood all
the provided information. If you are not confident working with 12V DC voltage or are
unsure of what you are doing, consider to seek for help by a professional installation
service or your vehicle´s manufacturer. Failure to observe these instructions may cause
an electrical shock, fatal or serious injury, material damage or impair the function of the
inverter.
WARNING: Before installing the inverter, please ensure the main switch is set to position
0 = “OFF”. Make sure the battery poles are clean when connecting the terminals. Tighten
the nuts and bolts to a torque of 12-13 Nm. Loose or dirty connections may cause
overheating.
Risk of electrical shock: Operation of the inverter without a proper ground connection
may result in an electrical safety hazard. Ensure proper ground connection is made
during installation. Do not reverse the polarity. Reversing the polarity of the connections
may cause a spark and melt internal fuses
Observe the relevant regulations and directives of your country !
In some country there might be legal regulations that require RCD protection of AC
output connections of installations (Residual-current device, also known as RCCB/GFCI).
RCDs may be fitted by a licenced electrician in installations.
Fastening the inverter
When selecting the installation location, observe the following instructions:
• The inverter can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
• The installation surface must be level and sufficiently sturdy.
• The inverter must be installed in a place that is protected from dirt, dust and moisture.
• The inverter may not be installed in the presence of flammable materials.
• The place of installation must be well-ventilated. A ventilation system must be present for
installations in small, closed spaces.
• The minimum clearance around the inverter should be at least 25 cm.
• Do not block or cover the ventilation holes. Be sure to keep a distance (at least 1 inch) from
surrounding objects.
Wiring & cables
A fuse should be provided at a distance of max. 30 cm from the battery´s positive
terminal. Failure to do so, may cause damage to the cabling or battery if a fault (e.g.
over-current or short circuit) occurs.
Reverse polarity connection may blow the internal fuse and may damage the inverter
permanently.
• Keep all load cables as short as possible. It is not recommended to use cables that exceed 4m in
length.
• If cables get hot replace them with thicker cables.
• Always use cables of good quality.
