Using the inverter
10.1
Switching on the inverter
➤ Set the main switch (fig. 6 1, page 4 and fig. 7 1, page 5) of the invert-
er to the "ON" position.
Set the On/Off switch to "OFF" to switch off.
➤ The inverter performs a self-test.
During the self-test, the built-in speaker emits tones and the LEDs flash.
✓ After the self-test is completed successfully, the "Input Level" (fig. 6 2,
page 4 and fig. 7 2, page 5) and "Load Status" (fig. 6 3, page 4 and
fig. 7 3, page 5) LEDs light up green.
Observe the following when using the device (see also chapter "Trouble-
shooting" on page 56)
The inverter switches off if:
the battery voltage drops below 10.5 V (12 Vg connection) or 21 V
(24 Vg connection),
the battery voltage exceeds 16 V (12 Vg connection) or 32 V (24 Vg
connection),
the inverter overheats.
➤ If this happens, shut down the inverter with the main switch(fig. 6 1,
page 4 and fig. 7 1, page 5).
➤ Check that the inverter is sufficiently ventilated and that the ventilation
grilles are unimpeded.
➤ Wait 5 – 10 minutes and switch the inverter on again without any electric
consumers.
When operating the inverter at high load for lengthy periods, it is advisable to
start the engine in order to recharge the vehicle battery.
