after use
• When not in use, the appliance should be stored in a dry, well ventilated place out of the
reach of children.
• Children should not have access to stored appliances.
• When the appliance is stored or transported in a vehicle it should be placed in the boot
or restrained to prevent movement following sudden changes in speed or direction.
• The appliance should be protected from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.
Inspection and repairs
• Before use, check the appliance for damaged or defective parts. Check for breakage of
parts, damage to switches and any other conditions that may affect its operation.
• Do not use the appliance if any part is damaged or defective.
• Have any damaged or defective parts repaired or replaced by manufacturer.
• Never attempt to remove or replace any parts other than those specified in this manual.
specific safety instructions for power inverters
WARNING:
This appliance converts power from a 12 Vdc battery to 230 Vac mains
supply voltage. Take precautions, including the following, to avoid the risk of electric shock.
• Only connect a plug fitted to the supply cord of an appliance to the inverter.
• Never connect an appliance by modifying the plug or by using an adapter unless
otherwise instructed by this instruction manual.
• The length of an appliance power cord to the inverter must not exceed two metres unless
otherwise instructed by this instruction manual.
• Never connect an appliance that is damaged or incomplete.
• Never connect the inverter to the mains supply or to the output of another inverter.
- The inverter cannot convert the mains supply to a dc voltage.
- The inverter cannot be used to supplement the mains supply.
• Disconnect the 12 Vdc accessory plug from the power source and remove the appliance
plug from the inverter before performing any maintenance or before cleaning the
appliance.
• Do not cover the inverter. Only use in well ventilated areas.
• Do not open the inverter, there are no serviceable parts inside. Do not probe the inverter.
• Check that connections to the dc supply are clean and secure. Loose connectors may
cause overheated wires and melted insulation.
• Check to make sure you have not reversed the polarity.
• Do not install in engine compartments.
• Do not use the inverter to supply any medical devices.

WARNING: Rechargeable devices –
from a modified sine wave inverter. They only operate correctly from a standard household
outlet which provides a pure sine wave. Therefore, the manufacturer recommends that
you operate these types of devices from a standard household outlet only, not from the
inverter.
This problem does not occur with the majority of battery-operated equipment. Most of
these devices use a separate charger or transformer that is plugged into an ac mains
socket. The inverter is easily capable of running most chargers and transformers.
• Retain this manual for future reference.

How tHe power Inverter works
The inverter is an electronic device that converts low voltage dc (direct current) electricity
from a battery or other power source to standard 230 volts ac (alternating current)
household power.
the power inverter output waveform
The ac output waveform of this inverter is known as a "modified sine wave." This type of
waveform is suitable for most ac loads, including linear and switching power supplies used
in electronic equipment, transformers, and small motors.
operatIng InstructIons
setup
Locate the power inverter securely in the cup-holder, making sure that it does not interfere
with normal operation of the vehicle, ie gear stick, handbrake etc.
Note:
Make sure that the fan is not obstructed in any way.
power source requirements
The power source must provide 12 Vdc and must be able to supply the necessary current
to operate the load.
Some rechargeable devices do not operate well
