OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS4.
Insert inverter into 12V accessory outlet: 4.1
Push the Power Inverter 140 rmly into a vehicle’s or portable power •
unit’s 12V accessory outlet. The LED indicator light should glow GREEN
verifying the inverter is receiving power. If the LED indicator is not on,
check the connection and fuses.
Connecting and using the AC or USB device:4.2
Make sure that the device to be operated is turned OFF.•
Plug the device into the Power Inverter AC outlet or USB port.•
Turn the device ON. If the device doesn’t work and the LED goes out, •
refer to section 5.
Reverse these steps and remove the pocket inverter from the outlet when 4.3
nished.
Note: A “buzzing” sound emitted from a sound systems is the result of
ineffective lters in the sound system. This can be resolved by purchasing
a sound system with a higher quality power supply or higher quality lter.
LED INDICATOR AND SHUTDOWN PROTECTION5.
The LED glows GREEN automatically when plugged into a 12V DC
source and will not glow under the following conditions:
When the power input from the vehicle’s battery drops to approximately 10 5.1
volts, low battery shutdown occurs and inverter shuts off.
When the power input of the vehicle’s battery exceeds 15 volts, high volt-5.2
age overload protection occurs.
The continuous load demand from the equipment or device being oper-5.3
ated exceeds 140 watts.
The case temperature becomes hot (exceeds 145°F).5.4
Reset: To reset after shutdown occurs, check the source of the problem
and correct.
POWER SOURCE6.
Your average automobile or marine battery at full charge will provide an
ample power supply to the inverter for approximately 3 hours when the en-
gine is off. The actual length of time the inverter will function depends on
the age and condition of the battery and the power demand being placed
by the device being operated with the inverter.
Turn OFF the device plugged into the inverter before starting the engine.
To maintain battery power, run the engine every 2 to 3 hours for approxi-
mately 10 minutes to recharge the battery. The Power Inverter 140 draws
very low amperage when not in use, and should be unplugged to avoid
battery drain.
