OPERATING PRINCIPALS/SUMMARY
In Review.
• Never attempt to operate your Whistler inverter from
any power source other than a 12 volt battery or a
group of batteries that total 12 volts.
• Always make certain that the power cable terminal
connections Negative (-) to Negative (-) and Positive
(+) to Positive (+). Check these connections
frequently to ensure that they are secure.
• Make certain the rated power consumption of the
appliance or equipment you wish to operate is compatible
with the capacity of your inverter.
• If the rated power consumption of the equipment is in
the range of the maximum specified wattage of your
converter, test the inverter to ensure that it will operate
properly.
• Before attempting to use a battery charger see page 16.
• Before attempting to use medical equipment see page 6.
• Use the proper gauge cable (smaller the number, the
larger the cable) available to connect the inverter to
the power source.
• When operating the inverter with the engine off, start the
engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for at least
10 minutes to recharge the battery.
